NO ROOM FOR PRIDE
Views: 27Someone asked me this past week what the real reason is behind the stubborn refusal among thousands of dedicated believers in Y’shua, to acknowledge that Y’shua is subordinate, and therefore less than (NOT the same as) Yahweh – the One who is his Father and our Father, his Elohim and our Elohim. This very … Continue reading
MENSE WAT YAHWEH AS HULLE ELOHIEM BELY
Views: 42Wanneer dit kom by die bekende Parashah oor die uitstuur van die 12 verspieders – Parashah “Lech lecha” (“STUUR VIR JOU manne uit”) – word die vraag dikwels gevra waarom Yahweh vir Mosheh so ‘n vreemde opdrag gegee het. Veral waarom Hy die woorde “vir jou” gebruik het en byvoorbeeld nie gesê het nie: … Continue reading
Is Y’shua ‘n mens?
Views: 31IV, Location Unknown Ek is besig om die vrae en antwoorde (onder “E-mails received”) op Elim se webtuiste te bestudeer. Dit sal baie gaaf wees as u dalk een sin uit ‘n antwoord op ‘n vraag oor “The deity of Yeshua” vir my kan verduidelik. Ek haal aan: “This confirms the fact that He … Continue reading
Is Y’shua gelyk aan Yahweh?
Views: 62CC, Plettenbergbaai Ons is so bly dat daar iewers op die wêrel-wye-web darem ook ‘n plekkie is waar ons die waarheid in “onse taal” kan leer. Ons het onlangs die artikel “Die drie-eenheid waarvan geen woord in die Skrif gerep word nie” gelees, en alhoewel ons saamstem dat die lering rondom die drie-eenheid verkeerd … Continue reading
Identity of Messiah
Views: 61SBS, Namibia I have read (your booklet “The Revealed Identity of the Messiah”), but I must admit to finding it quite disturbing. I have prayed about the matter and asked the guidance of Ruach HaKodesh – I do appreciate the fact that there are Scriptures that seem to indicate, or shall I rather say, … Continue reading
The meaning of Psalm 138:2
Views: 178BK, Randburg Please could you e-mail me your Ministries’ Statement of Beliefs. I read your Article on the names of our Heavenly Father, which I found VERY, VERY interesting – thank you. Just to add to that, I would like to share a Scripture with you, namely, Psm.138:2 (KJV) “I will worship toward Thy … Continue reading
Deity of the Messiah
Views: 24EVDG, DURBAN I am very glad to find you and your group of like minded thinkers. I would appreciate it if you could help answer some questions for me. The deity of Yeshua ? Was he born of a Virgin ? The mystery and Dogma surrounding the Trinity… The Netzarim. Are they believers in … Continue reading
Op of langs die troon
Views: 17WW, George Waar is Y’shua nou (volgens Openbaring 3:21 en ander verse)? Saam met sy Vader OP die troon of saam met sy Vader BY of LANGS die troon? KOMMENTAAR Die voorstelling reg deur die boek van Openbaring (en op ander plekke in die NT) is dat Yahweh OP die troon is en dat … Continue reading
LET US NOT REJECT THE MESSIAH
Views: 22In the book of Matthew, chapter 26, the suggested Messianic reading to go along with this week’s reading from the Torah, it is said that both Yehudah (Judas) and Kepha (Peter) rejected Y’shua in some way or other. As it turned out, Yehudah rejected Y’shua by handing Him over to the scribes and the … Continue reading
Who changed Matthew 28:19?
Views: 23GK, Poland See this article (study article about Matthew 28:19). What about you think? COMMENTARY I am also convinced that Matt 28:29 was changed by certain scribes at an early stage and that Y’shua was not using the “trinitarian formula” in this verse. The only reason why we kept the traditional translation in Woord … Continue reading
Die regte verstaan van Filippense 2

Fil 2:5 Want hierdie gesindheid moet in julle wees wat ook in Messiah Yahshua was. Fil 2:6 Hy, wat … Continue reading
DIE EEN IN WIE YAHWEH ‘N WELBEHAE HET
Views: 65In Mat 3:16-17 lees ons hierdie woorde: “En nadat Y’shua gedoop was, het Hy dadelik uit die water opgeklim, en kyk, die hemel gaan vir Hom oop, en Hy sien die Gees van Elohiem soos ‘n duif neerdaal en op Hom kom. En kyk, ‘n stem kom uit die hemel wat sê: Dit is … Continue reading
VERBIND AAN Y’SHUA DIE MESSIAS
Views: 32Ek het die afgelope paar dae aan ʼn bouprojekkie gewerk, met die hulp van twee Zimbabwiërs wat, terwyl hulle met hulle werk besig was, aanhoudend met mekaar in Shona gepraat het. Die enigste woord wat ek in hulle gesprekke kon herken – ʼn woord wat byna in elke tweede of derde sin voorgekom het … Continue reading
Y’shua, the form of Yahweh
Views: 30SG, Western Cape I hope you don’t mind me taking up some of your hard pressed time. I am aware of your understanding of the nature of Yeshua as being an anointed human being who had no pre-existence and I’ve read your booklet as well as your discussions on your website. However, I have … Continue reading
Did Yahweh come in the Flesh?
Views: 14SC, Western Cape I trust you are well. Are u able to give a response for this reply to the “Who came in the flesh” post on your website? To base this doctrine on seven different Scripture is not enough for me. These passages need to be interpreted within the context of the authors … Continue reading
Elohiem of Seun van Elohiem?
Views: 18DW, Mpumalanga Ek het bo genoemde Bybels a hele paar jaar gelede van julle bestel toe ek en my vrou na hierdie “nuwe” weg oor gegaan het. Dit is ‘n wonderlikke vertaaling en ons geniet dit baie, hulle is al hoeveel keer deur gelees en ons put nog elke week nuwe dinge uit die … Continue reading
LEERMEESTER BY UITNEMENDHEID
Views: 49Die gedeelte in die Messiaanse Skrifte wat normaalweg saam met die Torah lesing van hierdie week gelees word, is Markus 11:27 tot Markus 12:37. In hierdie gedeelte kry ‘n mens ‘n kykie in die lewe van Y’shua, die Leermeester – hoe Hy die vrae van sy opponente kon beantwoord deur belangrike beginsels van die … Continue reading
DIE VERSTAAN VAN “LOGOS” IN JOHANNES 1

Die probleem met Matt 28:19
Views: 27HF, Gauteng Het julle dalk artikels of kan julle my dalk in die regte rigting wys aangaande Mat. 28:19. Ek is tans onder die verstane dat ons net een keer moet afsak in die water in die naam van Yeshua Messiah. KOMMENTAAR Dit lyk asof iemand dalk met Mat 28:19 gepeuter het. Nie een … Continue reading
SOEKLIG OP DIE MESSIAS 4
Views: 28Die naam van hierdie week se Torah porsie (Ex 18 – 20) is “Jetro” en beskryf die periode in die woestyn, direk voor die ontvangs van die Tien Woorde en die res van die Torah, toe Jetro vir Mosheh gesê het dat sy werklading te swaar is en dat hy manne uit die volk … Continue reading
SOEKLIG OP DIE MESSIAS 3
Views: 23Wanneer daar na profesieë oor die Messias gesoek word, word daar nie normaalweg na die boek Shemot (Exodus) gekyk nie. Tog is daar in hierdie boek seker meer verborge verwysings na die Messias wat sou kom as in meeste ander boeke van die Ou Verbond. Shemot is in die eerste plek die boek wat … Continue reading
SOEKLIG OP DIE MESSIAS 2
Views: 33Daar is deesdae al hoe meer mense wat hulle stemme voeg by die massakoor van beswaardes wat beweer dat Y’shua van Natsaret nie is wat die Nuwe Testament sê Hy is nie en dat sy lewe ook nie ‘n vervulling van profesieë in die Ou Testament was nie. Hierdie siening word duidelik uitgelig as … Continue reading
SOEKLIG OP DIE MESSIAS
Views: 27Verlede week het ons kortliks stilgestaan by die twee parallelle hoofstukke in Mat 11 en Luk 16 waar Y’shua die uitspraak maak dat die periode van die Torah en die profete tot by Johannes die Doper gestrek het. In die konteks van daardie twee hoofstukke kon mens duidelik sien dat Y’shua nie wou sê … Continue reading
Vrae oor Woord en Getuienis

Trinity
Views: 19AM, Middelburg In which teaching will I find info regarding the “Trinity” pse? Why do the Bible call “Jes_s” the “Lord of the Sabbath”? Comment: I believe that Y’shua called himself “lord” or “master of the Sabbath – not to equate Himself with Yahweh (this was not the issue in any of the contexts … Continue reading
Who came in the flesh?

Views: 394It seems that the belief and conviction that Y’shua has come in the flesh is quite an important one. In the first letter of Yahuchanan, chapter 4, verses 2 and 3 the following statement is made: “Every spirit that confesses that Y’shua Messiah has come in the flesh is of Elohim, and every spirit … Continue reading
