Kehillat Yeshua Ministries
At Kehillat Yeshua Ministries we strive to model a life built on these three things, in that order. Yeshua. First and always foremost, we are disciples of Messiah Yeshua, through the grace of Adonai, and by the power of the Ruach Ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit). We promote, teach, and - God willing - embody the Gospel of the Kingdom for all (both Jew and Gentile). Torah. Second, we uphold the ongoing validity and applicability of God’s Torah (”Law”). We seek to observe these commandments in our daily lives to the best of our abilities, both individually and corporately. Fellowship. Third and finally, we strive to promote fellowship and community. All believers should be actively involved and engaged with a local fellowship community whenever possible. Torah was given to a corporate entity – Israel – and is meant to be lived out in community with others.

While the prior teaching covered an introduction to the Book of Galatians (topics below), this teaching dives into the book itself. Working Galatians 1 just a few verses at a time, the difficult passages are addressed in a way that is consistent with the text and the whole Bible.
Additionally addressed in this teaching is a brief section on Acts 15, and how it intersect with the controversy of Galatians.
Lastly, but importantly, a practical application is addressed, as we seek to understand not just what Galatians says, but how we should understand and apply it to our lives.
Be sure to catch the Intro teaching first.

We have been covering the Biblical (read: Leviticus 23) festivals as part of our Foundations of our Faith series. But what about Hanukkah? It is mentioned in John 10, after all.
In this teaching, guest speaker Pastor Ron Hill (ret.) covers a brief introduction to the Festival of Dedication, aka the Festival of Lights: Hanukkah.
More so than fried foods or miraculous oil or 9-branch hanukkiahs, Hanukkah contains a powerful message for all believers even today. Join us in this teaching from Pastor Hill to get to know Dedication more!

Continuing with the Foundations of our Faith series, Jeff teaches about the next topic: The Good News. In today's world, many people think the Gospel, or "good news" means: you get to ask Jesus into your heart, and then go live in heaven with Him when you die.
But is this idea Biblical? Is this really what the "good news" is all about? If the Gospel is about the Kingdom as Yeshua says, then what do we make of His Kingdom coming to earth?

This special teaching was delivered by Jonathan on Shavuot (Pentecost) 2021. In it, Jonathan discusses the significance of Shavuot, both as the day the Torah (Law) was given, as well as the giving of the Ruach Ha'Qodesh (Holy Spirit). He also brings out some interesting parallels between the two events, both from within the Bible and without.

As part of our "Foundations of our Faith" series, Jonathan discusses the Sabbath. We all take it for granted, and we all assume we know what it means to rest from our work. But there may be a little bit more than just that. Is there a difference between resting, and ceasing from work? Why does the Torah use two different words for "work" and what's the difference between them?
These questions and more are addressed in this installment of our "Foundations of our Faith" series!

In this installment of our "Foundations of our Faith" series, Jonathan discusses the dietary laws (commonly called the kosher laws) of Leviticus 11. He also walks through the commonly quoted passages from the New Testament (Mark 7, Acts 10, 1 Cor. 10, and 1 Tim. 4) and addresses them in an apologetic way. That is, how do we as Messianics reconcile the observance of the food laws today, with these passages?

In this installment of the "Foundations of our Faith" series, Jeff walks us through tithes and offerings. Have you ever felt pressured to "give your 10%" at your congregation? Where does this come from?
Is tithe just agricultural produce, or is money also involved?
Can we give today, even if there are no Levitical priests? If so, is it still called tithe?
In this teaching, Jeff gets at the heart of what tithing really about: worship. As an act of worship, tithing expresses far more than just a financial obligation.

Part of the "Scripture" installment of the Foundations of our Faith series. In Part 1, Jonathan discussed the background of Scripture and canon; why we have the books we do. With that background in mind, and being more sure of the books we call Scripture, this video dives into three areas that make Scripture come alive to us personally:
1. Inspiration2. Inerrancy3. InterpretationIt is our hope that this teaching helps settle any questions you may have regarding the authority of the Bible, especially when trying to confront apparent contradictions.
