Fr. Mike explains how the holy garments for priests described in Exodus 27-28, are intentionally designed to glorify God and highlight his beauty. He also gives us an insight into the heart of the priesthood. We read today from Exodus 27-28, Leviticus 20, and Psalm 119: 57-120.

This week, as we continue our study of the book of Leviticus, Pastoral Assistant Sam Jagt talks about the guidelines that Yahweh gave to His priests.

In this installment, Rod Thomas explores the Jewish concepts of the Messiah, focusing on the three-messiah framework: Mashiyach Nagid, Mashiyach ben Yosef, and Mashiyach ben David. The discussion delves into Daniel's prophecy, Jewish tradition, and the identity of Yeshua (Jesus) as understood in Messianic faith. The episode also examines why mainstream Judaism rejects Yeshua as Messiah and how these messianic expectations shape both Jewish and Messianic perspectives. Key Topics Covered 1. Introduction and Context Greetings and setting: Recorded on the 3rd Day of the 11th biblical month, 6025 (Friday, January 16, 2026). Reflection on persecution, faith, and the hope found in Yeshua's teachings (Matthew 5:10-12; Ephesians 6:18; Matthew 5:44; Luke 6:28). 2. Why Judaism Rejects Yeshua as Messiah Historical grievances and theological differences. The role of Rabbinic expectations and interpretations in shaping Jewish messianic beliefs (Hebrews 2:3; Romans 3:2; Romans 11:25-26; Zechariah 12:10). 3. The Three Messiahs in Jewish Thought Mashiyach Nagid (Messiah the Prince) Mashiyach ben Yosef (Messiah, son of Joseph) Mashiyach ben David (Messiah, son of David) The episode focuses on Mashiyach Nagid, with future installments to cover the other two. 4. What is Mashiyach Nagid? Linguistic breakdown: "Mashiyach" means "Anointed One"; "Nagid" means "Prince" or "Leader." Scriptural foundation: Daniel 9:25-26 and its interpretations. The prophecy's implications for Jewish and Christian eschatology (1 Corinthians 13:12; Matthew 24:15-16). 5. The Meaning and Role of "Nagid" "Nagid" as prince, ruler, leader, commander, or official. Biblical examples: Saul, David, Solomon, Hezekiah, Abner, Azariah, and others (1 Samuel 9:16; 10:1; 13:14; 25:30; 2 Samuel 5:2; 6:21; 7:8; 1 Kings 1:35; 2 Kings 18:1; 2 Chronicles 31:13). 6. Mashiyach Nagid in Prophecy and Tradition The "transitional" leader concept: Anointed but not yet king. Comparison with "Melech" (King) and the Davidic Covenant (2 Samuel 7:8-16; Psalm 2:8-12; 2 Chronicles 13:5). 7. Messianic Traits and the Melchizedekian Order Psalm 110 as a foundational text for the dual role of king and priest. The Melchizedekian priesthood and its fulfillment in Yeshua (1 Peter 2:9; Daniel 2:44; Matthew 21:44; 1 Corinthians 15:24; Revelation 11:15). 8. Jewish Perspectives on Mashiyach Nagid Views of Rashi, Ibn Ezra, and Rambam (Maimonides) on the identity and role of Mashiyach Nagid. The Essenes and Qumran writings: Priestly and royal messiahs, "Prince of the Congregation" (Damascus Document, Rule of the Congregation, 11QMelchizedek). Apocryphal and Talmudic references: Suffering and kingly messiahs (1 Enoch, Jubilees, Talmud). 9. Christian and Messianic Interpretations Yeshua as the fulfillment of Daniel's prophecy and the persona of Mashiyach Nagid. The dual or double-fulfillment view of prophecy. Jewish objections to identifying Yeshua as all three messianic figures. 10. Application and Call to Discipleship The call for believers to imitate Yeshua's character traits: suffering, triumph, priesthood, kingship, exaltation, royal lineage, and spiritual warfare (Isaiah 53; Colossians 2:15; Psalm 110; Matthew 1:1; Zechariah 14:3; 1 Peter 2:9; Revelation 20:6; 2 Corinthians 10:4-6; Ephesians 6:12-14). Invitation to covenant relationship and Torah-honoring lifestyle (2 Corinthians 6:2; Isaiah 55:6-9).

1/20/26 - Fr. Joseph Duffy shares a candid and personal account of how God led him to the Catholic priesthood and the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter. Raised in a devout Catholic family in Massachusetts and educated at a small Catholic school run by the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Fr. Duffy reflects on the formative years that quietly shaped his faith. He speaks honestly about the tension he experienced for years—imagining life as a husband and father while sensing a deeper call to the priesthood—and the unmistakable moment when God made His will clear. Now serving as Parochial Vicar at Corpus Christi Chapel in Naples, Florida, Fr. Duffy offers thoughtful, hard-won advice to anyone struggling with vocational discernment, sharing what helped him listen, wait, and finally say yes to the path God had prepared for him.

LEVITICUS 10 — UNAUTHORIZED FIRE, SOBRIETY, AND PRIESTLY DISCERNMENT (PART 2)“Surviving Near Holy Fire After Judgment”Teachers: Kerry & Karen BattleAhava ~ Love AssemblyThis Torah class continues Leviticus 10, following the judgment of Nadab and Abihu and the establishment of accountability after Yahuah revealed His accepted standard in Leviticus 9.In Part 1, we examined unauthorized fire, immediate judgment, Aaron's silence, and why grief did not override obedience.Leviticus 10 now moves from judgment to instruction for survival.This portion of the chapter establishes how priests are to remain alive, discerning, and faithful in the presence of holy fire.This is not emotional teaching.This is covenant instruction.WHAT WE COVER IN THIS MESSAGE1. Sobriety and Discernment Before YahuahLeviticus 10:8–11Yahuah speaks directly to Aaron and commands sobriety. This instruction is not about lifestyle control but about preserving discernment. Near holy fire, impaired judgment is deadly. Priests must be able to distinguish between the qadosh and the common and teach Israel accurately.2. Service Continues After JudgmentLeviticus 10:12–15Priestly service does not stop because judgment was severe. Obedience continues with greater restraint. Covenant order is preserved even when leadership has suffered loss.3. Rebuke, Discernment, and RestraintLeviticus 10:16–20Moses rebukes Aaron for deviation, because leadership must always be examined. Aaron's explanation is accepted because restraint is not rebellion. Presumption adds action without command. Wisdom withholds action out of fear of Yahuah.WHY THIS MESSAGE MATTERSDiscernment is required near holinessSobriety preserves lifeLeadership remains accountableRestraint is honoredPresumption is judgedCovenant order is protectedLeviticus 10 teaches that survival near holy fire requires discipline, clarity, and fear of Yahuah, not enthusiasm or impulse.SCRIPTURE REFERENCES FOR STUDYLeviticus 9–10Exodus 40Deuteronomy 4 • Deuteronomy 12Numbers 15 • Numbers 20Ezekiel 9 • Ezekiel 24Malachi 21 Samuel 24Proverbs 23Every section is taught precept upon precept.ABOUT AHAVA ~ LOVE ASSEMBLYWe teach the Pure Word of Yahuah.No religion.No tradition.No compromise.Our teaching follows the Sovereign Blueprint:Law | Precept | Example | Wisdom | Understanding | Prudence | Conviction | Fruit of the Ruach | Final Heart CheckSUPPORT THE WORK — GIVE VIA ZELLEZelle QR at: ahavaloveministry.comZelle only.No CashApp.No PayPal.FINAL WORDYahuah reveals His standard.Judgment enforces it.Discernment preserves life.Restraint protects the altar.Leviticus 10 governs how priests survive after accountability has been revealed.Final Heart Check:Now that judgment has already fallen, will your response show discernment, restraint, and fear of Yahuah, or will it presume upon access?

An episode from Ranchero Drive Baptist Church, a Bible believing, Bible preaching church in Kerrville, Texas.What Ranchero Drive Baptist Church (RDBC) Believes: The ScripturesWe believe the scriptures are verbally inspired of God making them the supreme and final authority for our faith and practice, and are preserved in the KJV Authorized Version.  GodWe believe in one God existing in three persons (The Holy Trinity): God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Existing without beginning and without end.  JesusWe believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His death on the cross to pay in full the debt for our sins, His resurrection, and His coming return.  The Holy SpiritWe believe the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity, one with the Father and the Son, the indweller of every believer to enlighten and seal each believer until the day of redemption of the body.ManWe believe that God created man in His image in a state of innocence, but through temptation, man transgressed and became dead in trespasses and sins. As a result, all men inherited a corrupt nature, are born in sin and are under condemnation. Security of the BelieverWe believe that those who, by faith, receive Jesus Christ as their personal Savior are born again of the Holy Spirit, are the children of God, are heirs and joint-heirs with Jesus Christ, are kept by the power of God and can know they are eternally saved forever! Last ThingsWe believe in the imminent, pre-tribulation, pre-millennial return of Christ. The Lord shall return for His church and rapture out the church at any given moment. The world will then enter into a seven-year period of tribulation that will end with the battle of Armageddon and the Second Advent of Jesus Christ. He will come as “King of Kings” and “Lord of lords”, and establish His kingdom that will last for 1,000 years. The Lord will then judge the living and the dead at the Great White Throne Judgement (which is different from the judgement Seat of Christ where the Lord judges the Church). After this, all the lost, Satan, death and hell are cast into the Lake of Fire, while the Lord and His saints enter into “Eternal Bliss”.  You may write to Ranchero Drive Baptist Church at:801 Ranchero Road, Kerrville, TX 78028Have A Blessed Day,Ranchero Drive Baptist Church  The KJV Bible Preaching Churches Podcast is directly supported by Doss Metrics LLC | Ministry Services based out of Cleveland Texas.

LEVITICUS 10 — YAHUAH'S FIRE, PRIESTLY RESTRAINT, AND ACCOUNTABILITY AFTER REVELATION“Authorized Worship, Discernment, and Survival Near the Fire”Teacher: Kerry BattleAhava ~ Love AssemblyThis message continues the Torah teaching sequence following Leviticus 9, where authorized fire came from before Yahuah and His standard for acceptable worship was revealed.Leviticus 10 moves from approval to accountability.This chapter establishes:Who defines acceptable worshipHow priests must respond after revelationHow leadership is judged when failure occursThis is not emotional teaching.This is covenant instruction.WHAT WE COVER IN THIS MESSAGE1. Unauthorized Fire After the Standard Is RevealedLeviticus 10:1–2Nadab and Abihu act without command after Yahuah has already revealed authorized fire. This section establishes that silence from Yahuah is not permission and that innovation at the altar becomes rebellion once the standard is known. Proximity increases accountability, not protection.2. Yahuah Is Qadosh and Judgment Is ImmediateLeviticus 10:2–3Fire comes from before Yahuah and consumes the disobedient priests. Aaron's silence is recorded as submission, not weakness. This section explains why restraint and fear of Yahuah preserve life when judgment is righteous.3. Grief Does Not Override Covenant AssignmentLeviticus 10:4–7Aaron and his remaining sons are commanded to remain at their post. Personal loss does not suspend priestly responsibility. Covenant order is protected even when judgment is painful.4. Sobriety and Discernment at the AltarLeviticus 10:8–11Yahuah speaks directly to Aaron and establishes sobriety as a requirement for discernment. This section explains that sobriety is about clarity and distinction, not control, and why impaired judgment is deadly near holy fire.5. Service Continues After JudgmentLeviticus 10:12–15Priestly service does not collapse after failure. Order continues with greater restraint, discipline, and fear of Yahuah.6. Rebuke, Discernment, and RestraintLeviticus 10:16–20Moses rebukes Aaron because deviation must be examined. Aaron's explanation is accepted because restraint is not rebellion. This section establishes the difference between presumption and wisdom.WHY THIS MESSAGE MATTERSAuthority is establishedWorship is regulatedLeadership is judgedPresumption is exposedRestraint is honoredCovenant order is enforcedLeviticus 10 teaches that worship without obedience is dangerous and leadership without discernment invites judgment.SCRIPTURE REFERENCES FOR STUDYLeviticus 9–10 • Exodus 40Deuteronomy 4 • Deuteronomy 12Numbers 15 • Numbers 20Ezekiel 9 • Ezekiel 24Malachi 21 Samuel 16 • 1 Samuel 24Job 40Psalms 46Hebrews 12Every section is taught precept upon precept.ABOUT AHAVA ~ LOVE ASSEMBLYWe teach the Pure Word of Yahuah, no religion, no tradition, no compromise.Our teaching follows the Sovereign Blueprint:Law | Precept | Example | Wisdom | Understanding | Prudence | Conviction | Fruit of the Ruach | Final Heart CheckSUPPORT THE WORK — GIVE VIA ZELLEZelle QR at: ahavaloveministry.comZelle only.No CashApp.No PayPal.FINAL WORDYahuah reveals His standard.Fire enforces it.Silence can preserve life.Restraint protects the altar.Leviticus 10 regulates life near holy fire.Final Heart Check:Now that the standard has been revealed, will your response honor Yahuah, or presume upon access?

Greetings, Folks. And Happy 2026!Last time we ended our session on Hebrews chapter 1 with this comment about verses 4 and 5:These verses describe a Father bestowing upon His Son the divine inheritance of kingship. This change in status didn't make Him better in the sense of becoming a better God but rather to become better than the angels in a new sense. Because He did something that no angel could ever do. He absorbed on the cross the punishment for every sin ever committed by every member of the human race who accepted Him or would ever accept Him and by so doing became better than the angels and by so doing pleased His Father to an extent that we can't fully appreciate. ‌Now regarding angels and their status, we need to talk about that and we will next time.Now Folks, we will talk about angels today but first let's talk about something else. We know that Hebrews was written to encourage Jewish believers in Jesus who were feeling a pull back toward traditional Judaism. And I believe this letter to the Hebrews was also intended to be read by Jews who did not yet believe in Jesus.Now what about these different groups of Jewish people? The way I see it, things back then were not all that different than they are today, at least among Jewish people brought up in traditional Jewish homes, homes where God was honored. You would have some people who fervently believed that God was real, some people who believed that God was real and that He had a Son – Yeshua the Messiah – and you would have some people who did not believe in God at all whether they openly admitted that or not. Chances are that in those days in the land of Israel when the Temple was still standing there were not too many Jews who openly admitted literal disbelief in God. Some of this last group would have been of the Priestly families, the Sadducees. Would the encouragement of this letter to these different groups of Hebrews have varying effects in drawing them into the faith? It would all depend on the Holy Spirit. Because nobody can come to faith in Yeshua, nobody can be born again, on the basis of his own will or decision. And it's worth restating that no one comes to the Father – no one is saved, no one receives the gift of eternal life – except through faith in the finished work of Jesus on the cross. And that doesn't just go for Jewish people. That applies to Gentiles as well.The author of this letter used Biblical truth to show these groups of people the clear advantage of believing in Jesus. And in the rest of this first chapter the truth about the superiority of Yeshua to the Angels was used. Jewish people, particularly Pharisees and those exposed to the influence of Pharisees - surely a substantial number of people even if not a majority - believed in angels and in their superiority over humans. But what if Jesus was superior even to angels? The Scriptures clearly prove that and who better to show us that than the Holy Spirit inspired author of this letter.And the Old Testament Scriptures were also used to prove that Jesus is God.Folks, can you use Scripture to prove Scripture? Certainly. God does not contradict Himself. But here is something a little different: Can a divinely inspired writer such as the author of Hebrews use already established Scripture (Old Testament Scriptures) to prove what he is writing (New Testament Scriptures)? Can the Holy Spirit do this? Why not? Of course He can. Remember that although the Old Covenant and the New Covenant are indeed different, the Old Testament and New Testament Scriptures comprise one book. Both are the word of God and God does not contradict Himself, ever. The Apostle Paul, in Romans, used the Psalms to demonstrate that no one can come to God on his own:Romans 3:10 (NKJV) As it is written: “THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NO, NOT ONE;is proved by :Psalms 53:3 (NKJV) Every one of them has turned aside; They have together become corrupt; There is none who does good, No, not one.And here are two examples from the Lord Himself: John 5:45-47 (NIV) “But do not think I will accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, on whom your hopes are set. [46] If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me. [47] But since you do not believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?” Jesus is here referring to the Law of Moses, the Torah. One example can be taken from Deuteronomy:Deuteronomy 18:18-19 (NKJV) I will raise up for them a Prophet like you from among their brethren, and will put My words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. [19] And it shall be that whoever will not hear My words, which He speaks in My name, I will require it of him.And here is another example taken from the gospel of Luke describing the conversation that Jesus had with two disciples on the road to Emmaus:Luke 24:44 Then He said to them, “These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me.” 45 And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures.So with this strong supporting background, let's look at some of the Scriptures used to do this in chapter one of Hebrews:Hebrews 1:6 (NKJV) But when He again brings the firstborn into the world, He says: “LET ALL THE ANGELS OF GOD WORSHIP HIM.”This is a quote from Psalm 97:7 in the Septuagint version of the Old Testament. Angels worship those who are greater than they are. Jesus is greater than the angels.Hebrews 1:7 (NKJV) And of the angels He says: “WHO MAKES HIS ANGELS SPIRITS AND HIS MINISTERS A FLAME OF FIRE.”Angels are very powerful spirit beings whom God uses to serve His purposes and who may be manifested as flames of fire as was the case when horses and chariots of fire were revealed to a frightened young man though the ministry of the prophet Elisha (2 Kings 6:17). Angels are indeed very great.Hebrews 1:8 (NKJV) But to the Son He says: “YOUR THRONE, O GOD, IS FOREVER AND EVER; A SCEPTER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IS THE SCEPTER OF YOUR KINGDOM.Here, God the Father is revealing that His Son is also God and that His Throne and Kingdom is righteous and is forever and ever as prophesied in Psalm 45:6. Jesus is not only greater than the angels, there is no comparison. Jesus is God. The Father says so.Hebrews 1:9 (NKJV) YOU HAVE LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HATED LAWLESSNESS; THEREFORE GOD, YOUR GOD, HAS ANOINTED YOU WITH THE OIL OF GLADNESS MORE THAN YOUR COMPANIONS.”God the Father is anointing this one and only Son because of the Son's love of righteousness and hatred of lawlessness. That is why He went to the cross. God never said this to an angel. Folks, I thinks Jesus' companions must be angels. From Psalm 45:7.Hebrews 1:10 (NKJV) And: “YOU, LORD, IN THE BEGINNING LAID THE FOUNDATION OF THE EARTH, AND THE HEAVENS ARE THE WORK OF YOUR HANDS.Hebrews 1:11 (NKJV) THEY WILL PERISH, BUT YOU REMAIN; AND THEY WILL ALL GROW OLD LIKE A GARMENT;Hebrews 1:12 (NKJV) LIKE A CLOAK YOU WILL FOLD THEM UP, AND THEY WILL BE CHANGED. BUT YOU ARE THE SAME, AND YOUR YEARS WILL NOT FAIL.”These three verses are from Psa 102:25-27. Jesus is able to do what only God can do.Hebrews 1:13 (NKJV) But to which of the angels has He ever said: “SIT AT MY RIGHT HAND, TILL I MAKE YOUR ENEMIES YOUR FOOTSTOOL”?And to which angel did God ever say this, from Psalm 110:1 as written and prophesied by King David. To no angel ever.So, folks the Son is greater than the angels. And the Son is God. The case for this is established through the Hebrew Scriptures and the Scriptures cannot be broken (John 10:35).And to finish chapter one:Hebrews 1:14 “Are they (angels) not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?” Folks, the angels are mighty and glorious beings. But great as they are, they are created beings and they are in a sense assistants to God. They help believers in Yeshua, Jesus, who will inherit salvation.Folks, this has been a difficult passage today. I feel that I haven't said much but I hope that it has been enough. The Scriptures speak clearly. The angels are indeed great. But the Son of God is greater. He is God. Will you not see this, my dear Jewish friend? And the New Covenant is greater than the Old. As we will see in a later chapter, the Old Covenant is obsolete and it completely faded away in 70 AD when the Temple was destroyed. God's laws are not obsolete but the Old Covenant is. That system of religion no longer has any power. My friend, whether you are Jewish or Gentile, please don't ignore this. God sent His Son into the world that He might die as the sacrifice for your sins. Call upon His name, the Lord Jesus, and ask Him to give you eternal life. If you are sincere He will not turn you down.May you be blessed my friends. Until the next time. This is a public episode.

Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Gospel – Matthew 15:29-37 – At that time: Jesus walked by the Sea of Galilee, went up on the mountain, and sat down there. Great crowds came to Him, having with them the lame, the blind, the deformed, the mute, and many others. They placed them at His Feet, and He cured them. The crowds were amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the deformed made whole, the lame walking, and the blind able to see, and they glorified the God of Israel. Jesus summoned His disciples and said, “My Heart is moved with pity for the crowd, for they have been with Me now for three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, for fear they may collapse on the way.” The disciples said to Him, “Where could we ever get enough bread in this deserted place to satisfy such a crowd?” Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” “Seven,” they replied, “and a few fish.” He ordered the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then He took the seven loaves and the fish, gave thanks, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds. They all ate and were satisfied. They picked up the fragments left over–seven baskets full. Memorial of Saint Francis Xavier, Priest Saint Francis, pray for us! Bishop Sheen quote of the day

LEVITICUS 7 — THE LAW OF THE OFFERINGS (ASHAM, SHELAMIM & THE PRIESTLY PORTIONS)“Holiness, Boundaries, and the Covenant Order of Yahuah”Teachers: Kerry & Karen BattleAhava ~ Love AssemblyToday's class enters Leviticus 7 — the covenant blueprint that completes the offering system, revealing how guilt, gratitude, purity, and priestly inheritance intertwine to maintain order in Israel.This is not ritual.This is the architecture of Yahuah's kingdom.Leviticus 7 establishes the laws governing:1. The Asham — the guilt offering that exposes hidden motives (Lev 7:1–5)2. Priestly Access — who may eat what is qodesh (Lev 7:6–10)3. The Shelamim — thanksgiving, vow, and freewill offerings (Lev 7:11–18)4. The Purity Laws — who is permitted to eat and who is cut off (Lev 7:19–21)5. The Eternal Ban — no blood and no chelev, forever (Lev 7:22–27)6. The Priestly Portions — breast, thigh, wave, and heave (Lev 7:28–34)7. The Inheritance Law — Yahuah gives portions to Aharon's sons (Lev 7:35–36)8. The Covenant Summary — sealing all the offering laws from Sinai (Lev 7:37–38)Each command connects directly to the covenant justice system:Holiness is guardedBoundaries are enforcedRestoration is structuredPurity is mandatoryInheritance is protectedDevotion is personalOfferings are relationalThe altar is centralLeviticus 7 is not a chapter about sacrifices,it is the blueprint for how a holy nation lives with a holy Elohim.I.

Apostles Doctrine: Tithing is Priestly not InstitutionalScripture: Acts 2Messenger: Apostle Suzanne Howard

[Moses] put the tunic on Aaron, tied the sash around him, clothed him with the robe and put the ephod on him. — Leviticus 8:7 A middle-school student asked why I was studying for eight years to be “ordained.” I explained that the church ordains ministers for special duties, like raising their hands to give the blessing in church. He wasn't impressed. “That's a long time to go to school just to be able to raise your hands,” he said.In Leviticus 8 God gives instructions for ordaining Aaron and his sons to serve as priests. The priests' clothing indicated the privilege and responsibility they bore. Priestly garments were purple and gold, matching the colors of the tabernacle, because the priests performed special duties for the Lord. The high priest's turban was inscribed with the words “Holy to the Lord” (Exodus 28:36), indicating special service to God. On the ephod—a kind of vest—were 12 stones, one for each tribe of Israel. God's people would see these stones and remember that the high priest carried their tribe close to his heart and lifted them up in prayer to God.It's even better for us! Hebrews 7:23-28 assures us that Jesus, our ultimate High Priest, continually lifts us up before God and holds us near to his heart. When grief or sadness weigh us down, Jesus is lifting us up! When Satan nags us about repeated failures, Jesus' Spirit reminds us that his righteousness covers all our sin. When we don't know how or what to pray for, Jesus prays on our behalf before the Lord Almighty! Lord Jesus, we thank and praise you for being our perfect priest. Thank you for representing us, O Savior and King! Amen.

Sunday AM - Mark

Pastor Bobby Schuller teaches on being connected to Christ, the cornerstone, and how this empowers us to walk in victory as part of a royal priesthood. Embrace your priestly duties and experience the presence of God in your life, with today's message: "The Priestly Role of the Believer."

Priestly celibacy, gender ideology, antisemitism and much more in our Friday edition of Called to Communion with Dr. David Anders.

In this interview, Matt sits down with the one and only Fr. Mike Schmitz. The conversation focuses on accepting who God made you to be — as it relates to getting older, detachment (even from good things), anxiety, fatherhood, the spiritual life and more. Also discussed is fitness, the rising interest in Catholicism among young people today, Gen Z vs. Millennials, why Fr. Mike loves being a priest, the impact of Bible in a Year, God's love, grief, Fr. Mike's podcast, and the beauty or religious orders. 

Crystal Rivers | Word for Now | Nov 3, 2025 Let your mind be renewed until you can test and prove God's good, acceptable, and perfect will in real time. Read Scripture like a map of “holy hyperlinks”: when you see patterns (120 in the upper room; the cloud that filled the tabernacle and temple; the smoke that fills the temple in Revelation 15), grasp the message—when God's glory (His light) fills His house, reality is revealed. That revealing is what Scripture calls “wrath”: not God lashing out, but light exposing and undoing whatever partners with death. Treat sin like cancer—small mutations that look harmless until they consume; do not negotiate with it. Refuse the world's narratives that keep the “old man” animated; walk by the light of what God says of you in Christ. Go deeper: how to live this now • Rule your inputs. Curate what you watch, read, and repeat. Your “inner light” is shaped by your daily feed. Replace doom-scroll with Word-scroll. • Daily exchange. Morning and night: (1) confess what's false, (2) declare what's true “in Christ,” (3) take one concrete action within 24 hours that agrees with truth. • Short accounts. Repent fast, forgive fast, reconcile fast. Don't sleep with accusation in your mouth or offense in your heart. • Welcome exposure. Ask trusted believers to lovingly confront blind spots. Treat reproof as mercy, not shame. • Train imagination. Meditate until you see yourself acting like Jesus in specific pressures—then go do it. • Fast strategically. Use food, media, and comfort fasts to break agreement with “old-man” reflexes. Pair every fast with extra Word and prayer. • Pray for light, not ease. Ask for illumination that makes sin impossible to hide and obedience easy to choose. • Practice generosity. Give time, honor, and money where it costs you. It starves pride and feeds love. Reading numbers as hyperlinks (so symbols serve obedience) • 12 → Governmental maturity (tribes/apostles). • 10 → Testing/completeness of order. • 100 → Fullness/fruitfulness. • 120 → Priestly fullness unto glory (echoing the trumpeting priests). • 144,000 → A picture of completeness multiplied (mature, sealed people across tribes), pointing to a people formed into Christ, not mere headcount. Use symbols to aim your life: pursue maturity, tested obedience, fruit that remains, priestly worship, and sealed allegiance. Discernment drills (5 minutes each) 1. Light Check: “What am I believing right now? Does it agree with the Word or with fear/pride?” Replace the lie with a verse and an action. 2. Speech Guard: Before replying, ask: “Will these words sow light or feed death?” If neutral or dark, wait. 3. Peace Barometer: If peace drops, trace the last agreement you made (thought, word, click). Break it; agree with truth again. 4. Mercy Reflex: When someone fails, act in the opposite spirit within one hour: bless, cover, help. 5. Hidden Yes: Do one obedient act daily that only God sees. It trains you for a glory-filled temple where flesh cannot posture. Community rhythms that make holiness feel like love • Confession before communion. Normalize brief, specific confession and prayer before worship. • Testimony of exposure → restoration. Celebrate stories where light revealed sin and produced healing. • Prophetic with process. Words that expose should come with a path to restore (scripture, steps, accountability, time frame). • Hospitality as warfare. Open tables dismantle isolation, bitterness, and secret agreements with darkness. Pitfalls to refuse • Spectator faith. Consuming teachings without practicing them calcifies the heart. • Cynicism disguised as discernment. Testing everything is biblical; scorning everything is unbelief. • End-times fear. Revelation's aim is loyalty and hope, not panic. Read for the glory outcome. • Selective obedience. Partial yes is a slow no; it keeps the “old man” on life support. A simple daily liturgy (10 minutes) 1. Present: “Lord, I present my body a living sacrifice.” 2. Renew: Read a short passage; speak one sentence of obedience you'll do today. 3. Renounce: Name any lie/accusation; replace it with truth out loud. 4. Request: “Flood my heart with light. Make exposure my friend and love my reflex.” 5. Release: Bless an enemy, a rival, or a critic by name. Lean into that future now—detox from worldliness, fast and pray, saturate your imagination with the Word, stay tender and quick to repent, forgive before you feel it, welcome loving correction, and build communities where prophetic clarity, humility, and mercy make compromise impossible. Search out what God has hidden for you (not from you): the unsearchable riches of Christ will meet you as you seek. Live like a king who searches matters out; love like a bride who reads the romance in every parable; and let your daily choices agree with the light you intend to live by.

This sermon draws a profound connection between the ancient priestly garments and duties described in Exodus 39 and the spiritual vocation of all believers in Christ. Centered on the sacred role of the high priest, it emphasizes the holiness, danger, and solemn responsibility of approaching a holy God, illustrated through the meticulous construction of the priestly attire and the life of constant ritual, purity, and sacrifice. The passage underscores that true priesthood was not earned by lineage or ambition but by divine appointment and consecration, culminating in the ultimate fulfillment of Christ as the perfect, sinless High Priest who entered heaven itself, offering His own blood once for all. The sermon then applies this truth to the present day, declaring that every Christian is now a 'holy priesthood' (1 Peter 2:9), called not to perform sacrifices but to live in holy separation, proclaim God's glory, and resist the passions of the flesh. It calls believers to embrace their high calling with reverence, not as a burden, but as a privilege rooted in Christ's finished work, urging them to walk in holiness, bear witness to the world, and await the day when all will glorify God.

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Luke 13:31-35 - Some Pharisees came to Jesus and said, "Go away, leave this area because Herod wants to kill You." He replied, "Go and tell that fox, 'Behold, I cast out demons and I perform healings today and tomorrow, and on the third day I accomplish My purpose. Yet I must continue on My way today, tomorrow, and the following day, for it is impossible that a prophet should die outside of Jerusalem.' "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how many times I yearned to gather your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were unwilling! Behold, your house will be abandoned. But I tell you, you will not see Me until the time comes when you say, Blessed is He Who comes in the Name of the Lord." Bishop Sheen quote of the day 2, 3, 4) Terry discusses what must be done to foster vocations to the Priesthood, and the influences of the Saints and others

It's time for the men to stir it up. God has put gifts and talents on the inside of us and at times in our lives they go dormant for whatever reason. God is reminding us to stir it up. Ps. Jon encourages the men to regain their Kingly and Priestly dominance.
