Foundations with Mandy and Robbo: Recent Episodes
Vision Christian Radio
'Foundations' is about filling in the gaps with the information most people miss or are unaware of. The truth is that over time words, definitions and culture changes in dramatic ways and applying present day understanding and meanings to words, phrases and events, can lead to very different conclusions. By learning about the Jewish and Hebrew culture that the Bible was set in and the environment, traditions and understandings of the people whom God chose to write down His Word, we can gain a bigger, deeper and richer understanding of God's Word that we love so much.

This is the second-last program for our series on Replacement Theology, the faulty belief that God has forsaken the Jewish people, and replaced them with the Gentile church. We've been learning over the past few days that God hasn't forsaken them, in fact, He's been keeping all His promises to them. In our program today, we're going to recap the promises He's made and kept to them.

Today on Foundations we'll learn about another fulfilled promise of God to His people, especially the restoration of their ancient holy language. Hebrew was only used for ceremonial purposes, beyond that it was a forgotten and dormant language. But God promised its restoration because God always keeps His promises to His people. He's never forsaken or replaced them, as many in Christendom believe.

On Foundations today, we're going to look at the requirements of Gentile believers who are grafted in to the Jewish people of God. It's important to understand, especially because many Christians embrace Replacement Theology.

We’ve turned our attention to the teaching of Paul about how the Gentile church is grafted into the people of God.

Very few people get excited when reading the book of Leviticus, because it's a long list of laws and rules and consequences.

In our program today as we continue learning about Passover, we’ll learn about some of the particular elements of the meal as Jews celebrate Passover today. We’ll learn about leaven and the lighting of the Passover candles.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our program today we’ll continue learning about the Feast of Passover, and get some history as to why this feast became so important and significant to God’s people.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Feast of Passover is the first of the seven mandatory feasts of the Lord that God commanded His people Israel to observe every year. We’ll be learning about this feast over the coming days to learn what the feast entailed and how Jesus our Messiah fulfils every element of the Passover meal.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We know that the Jewish people are known as the Hebrews, but what is a Hebrew? What does that word even mean? That’s what we’ll be looking at today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We???re going to continue our conversation about orphans, and what it meant to be an orphan adopted into a Roman family during the days of the Roman Empire, and what that means for us as believers today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Paul described those of us who don’t know Christ, especially Gentile’s, as orphans, and that when we come to faith in Christ, we’re adopted in the family of God and therefore, are no longer orphans. What did that mean in the ancient Roman Empire world? That’s what we’ll take a look at on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Making vows is serious business as far as the Bible is concerned. Making vows to people is serious and making vows to God is even more serious and we’re going to continue that conversation on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There are many ancient Middle Eastern traditions that we don’t know about or understand, and one of them is the tradition of corban???making vows. That’s what we’ll take a look at on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Last time we looked at the curious description the Bible has of human beings being like sheep. We also have a God who is described as being our Shepherd. We’ll continue that conversation on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Nobody wants to be described as an animal, however, the Bible describes human beings as being like sheep, and with good reason. We tend to behave just like them in so many ways. We also know that sheep desperately need a shepherd to look after them. We have a God who is called the Good Shepherd and that’s what we’ll be learning about on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re going to continue our conversation on knowing who our King is, and also on how we should approach our King.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There???s quite a bit of confusion about not only knowing who our King is, but how we???re supposed to approach our King. Because the Bible says we can come boldly to the throne of God, does that mean we can come flippantly, or casually? These are questions we???ll be tackling on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We???re going to conclude our conversation about the meaning of the name Christ, and why it???s so significant.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations we’re going to look at the meaning of the name ’Christ’. Too many people, Christ is Jesus’ surname, and nothing could be further from the truth. In Jewish culture, names have meaning and the name Christ, or the Hebrew equivalent, is really significant.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll be continuing our conversation today about the return of Christ and when this momentous event might take place.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
One of the greatest doctrines of the Christian faith is the return of Christ, His second coming. Many have tried to predict when His coming will be, and just as many have failed in their predictions. The Bible says that no one knows the hour or the day, but can we know approximately when He’s coming back? That’s our conversation today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Terrorism came solidly into the west with the attack on 9/11. Terrorism was very prevalent in the ancient world and many critics of the Bible have condemned God as being something of a terrorist. But we’ve been learning about what God’s Word actually says and that’s what our focus is today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Unfortunately, terrorism has become far too much a part of our lives in recent years, for the most part, something we’ve been unused to. But terrorism has been around for millennia and we’ll be looking into the Torah to see what God has to say about it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
While the feast of Purim isn’t a mandatory Feast of the Lord, it’s a very important feast in the Jewish calendar. We’ve been learning about the how’s and why’s, and we’ll continue learning about this feast, but particularly from a Messianic Jewish perspective.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our program today, we’ll continue the story of Queen Esther of Persia, whose uncle Mordecai became the focus of irrational hatred by evil Haman, who plotted to wipe out entirely, every Jew living in the kingdom of Persia.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The annual holiday of Purim is a celebration and remembrance of another time in Israel’s history when a plot was formed against them to exterminate them. In today’s program we’ll go back in time to ancient Persia, and a young Jewish girl who became queen and who would save her people. Her name was Esther.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Some people read the New Covenant and conclude that Jesus just loved everyone to bits. Others read the Bible and conclude He was incredibly judgmental and harsh. Which of these views is correct? We’ll be looking today on Foundations about whether Jesus was loving or a severe judge.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today we’ll wrap up our look at the western industrialised worldview that has wrongly viewed and interpreted the Bible from that vantage point.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ve heard the term, ’Clash of Cultures’ many times, and in truth, this clash of cultures can make it very hard for Christians in the west to understand the Bible, which is from the east?the Middle East to be exact and to the Middle Eastern mind, that makes the west a bit weird.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Jewish history and culture is confusing to most in the west, and that’s primarily because an eastern mindset is foreign to us. It’s weird, but in our program today we’ll be looking at a different definition of weird and it’s based on western ideology.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
For many Christians, reading the Old Covenant rules and regulations is very confusing, and often times seems like foolishness. Everything however was for good reason, and today we’ll be looking at the prohibition of mixing wool with linen.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
An ancient Jewish practice of rabbis was to look for commonalities or connections between passages when a word or phrase was repeated. In this way, they’d be able to connect those words or events, and deepen the meaning and richness of God’s Word, revealing multi-levels of understanding. This process is termed ’stringing pearls’ and that’s what we’ll be looking at on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In today’s program, we’ll spend some time in Isaiah 53, a chapter that describes great suffering and sorrow by the person we know as Messiah. Why did He suffer and who did He suffer for?and who was He? That’s what we’ll try to determine today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We finish our time together on Foundations learning about the tassels worn by Jewish men. The symbolism is rich and significant, but now we learn what it means for us who believe in Jesus. Are they for us or not?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today we’re continuing our look at the wearing of tassels on the garments of all Jewish men, and in particular the symbolism of authority associated with the hem of a man’s garment. A garment that even Jesus wore.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There are a lot of laws in the Old Covenant that seems strange to the modern, western mind, one of those laws is the requiring of Jewish men to wear tassels on the corners of the garments. In fact, religious Jews wear them to this day. What do they mean? That’s what we’ll begin learning about today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today Foundations looks at how Jesus used an unclean item in one of His parables, an unclean item He declared priceless.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
God often declared certain things to be unclean, and yet, a simple sprinkling of blood or the ashes of a sacrifice could transform the unclean thing into something clean and acceptable. How can that be? That’s the focus on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Apostle Paul taught us to pray without ceasing, a difficult and high calling to be sure. While we might look negatively upon Jewish traditions, they have developed the habit of praying to God in all situations throughout their day, no matter how mundane. It’s a curious thought, but something we can learn from.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Not all customs and traditions are bad, and some of the customs and traditions within Jewish prayer are lovely, rich and full of meaning. That’s what we’ll begin learning about today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Our program today looks at some of the characters God used to achieve His purposes, wondering how on earth He could not only use, but actually choose some of these people who did some really dreadful things. How could God choose such people to be His representatives to the world?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re learning about judging on a personal basis, ’measure for measure’, and today we’ll be looking at the situation of Job and his friends and how they misapplied this kind of judging when they observed all the loss and hardships that Job had experienced.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There are different kinds of judging mentioned in the Bible, in Foundations we’re going to look at the issue of judging others, but on a more personal level, at least what this kind of judging should look like.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Women’s Lib has done some good for women, but it’s also done a lot of damage. We’ve been looking at how the Bible views women, specifically Ruth and Rahab, and in this program we’ll be spending more time in the New Covenant to see how the early church and Paul’s letters considered women.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In many cultures throughout history, women have fought for their place and not always successfully. In Foundations we’re going to look at how the Bible viewed women, in particular we’re going to look at the lives of two women, Ruth and Rahab.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today on Foundations, we’re going to look a Hebrew words and the incredible wisdom and depth that are found in them.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Western mind often struggles to rightly understand what the Bible is communicating because we don’t understand the cultural nuances of the ancient people it was writing about and to. This often means we impose modern Western culture into an ancient Middle Eastern context and it can really mess up our conclusions. This is the conversation we’re continuing on Foundations today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
One of the biggest challenges for the church in the West, is grasping so much of the Middle Eastern ethnic understanding of the Bible and the cultures in which it was written. That’s what we’ll begin looking at in Foundations today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our last program we looked at the fact that the Bible tells us to fear God. Some people have misunderstood this and often with good reason, it hasn’t always been taught well throughout the centuries. We’ll wrap up this topic today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Bible tells us that we’re supposed to fear God?does that mean we’re supposed to be terrified of Him? That’s what our conversation will be about on the program today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In Foundations today we’re going to consider the Hebrew view of watching what comes out of our mouths and the power of an evil tongue.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
If ever there was a misunderstood topic in the Bible, it’s the topic of judging. People don’t realise that there are times when we are required to judge and there are times when we’re not. In the program today we’ll be learning about learning to judge rightly in our daily lives.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our program today we’re going to look at a verse in the Gospel of Matthew that at first seems out of place and second, seems a little bit superstitious. Jesus was not even remotely superstitious, so we’ll tackle it to see if there’s a deeper meaning.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ve learned about rabbis and their students or disciples in the past couple of programs and today we’ll finish up learning how disciples would watch, follow and emulate their rabbis so closely that the process was described as walking in his dust. In other words, staying so close to learn all they could, that the very dust from the rabbi’s sandals would cover them.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The rabbis of the ancient world ? and today ? hand selected their students, their disciples, whom they would teach about God’s Law and how they were to live. The disciples or students role was to learn everything they could from him so that their lives mirrored that of the rabbi. We’re continuing on Foundations to learn how students or disciples related to their rabbis.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In our previous program we began to look at the argument of many Jewish people who reject Jesus as the Messiah, is because Messiah is supposed to bring world peace. We’ll continue our conversation on this issue on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
One of the criticisms of Jews who reject Jesus as the Messiah, is that the Messiah is supposed to usher in world peace. Since there is still no world peace, they conclude that Jesus couldn’t possibly be the Messiah. That’s the topic of our conversation today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re in a series about the Messiah at the moment on Foundations, we’ve been learning about Moses and how he prophesied that God would actually raise up a Messiah like Moses for His people to follow. We’ll conclude the conversation today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Jewish people are looking for their Messiah to come, a Messiah who would be like Moses. Unfortunately, many rabbis believe that by believing in Jesus as the Messiah, Messianic Jews are actually rejecting Moses. We’ll look at that on Foundations today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There are seven mandatory Feasts of the Lord, we’ve learned about them all on Foundations and today we’ll get an overview of them all to see how they present the work and ministry of Jesus.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Feast of Sukkot (Soo-cott) or the Feast of Tabernacles like every Feast of the Lord, is a picture of some element of the ministry and works of the Messiah. We’ll wrap up our time on this feast today on Foundations to show how Jesus is the fulfilment of Sukkot too.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Feast of Sukkot (Soo-cott) is known mostly as the Feast of Tabernacles. It’s one of the seven mandatory Feasts of the Lord. It a remembrance of the time the Hebrews were travelling in the wilderness during their 40 year wanderings and how God provided for all their needs on a daily basis.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today we’ll see how Jesus the Messiah is once again the fulfilment of the Day of Atonement ? Yom Kippur ? as He is in every other Feast of the Lord.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement is what we’ll continue learning about on Foundations today. It’s the time of the year ? the only day of the year ? when the Jewish High Priest was permitted to enter the Holy of Holies in the Temple to make atonement for the sins of the people. It was also a time of self-denial and we’ll learn about some of the requirements of the people during this sacred time.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Yom Kippur is the Day of Atonement in the Hebrew Calendar. It’s one of the mandatory Feasts of the Lord that God said His people were to observe every year. It’s also the most solemn and serious day of the year for the Jewish people.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ve been learning about the Messiah for some time now, trying to nail down His identity. We’re going to look at the life of Moses for a few programs, because the Jewish people hold Moses in extremely high regard, and yet God promised to raise up another greater than Moses for His people to follow. Could that be Jesus? That’s going to start our conversation today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our program today, we’re going to look closer at the life of king David, whose life parallels the life of Messiah as we continue our journey to learn about the identity of the Messiah.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re continuing our journey to learn about the identity of the Messiah, we’ve been learning about the lives of both Joseph and Daniel, whose lives parallel the life of Messiah, we’re going to look with greater detail this time, at the life of Joseph.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We’re going to wrap up our time learning about Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year in our program today. We’ve learned that the feature of trumpet blasts are all focused on the hearts of the people and their expectation of the coming of their king, and we’ll see clearly today how Jesus is their expected coming King.

Rosh Hashana is the Jewish New Year, the start of the new year in the Hebrew Calendar. It’s also known as the Feast of Trumpets because trumpets feature so heavily in the annual celebration. In todays’ program we’ll get some background into the significance of the various different trumpet blasts that are sounded during this holiday.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Last time on Foundations we looked at the Scriptural evidence of a suffering Messiah, and this time we’ll look at the Scriptural evidence of a warrior Messiah and see if we can reconcile them both to help us understand how Judaism believes in two Messiah’s.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our series about the identity of the Messiah, we began learning last time that there’s an understanding in Judaism that there are two Messiahs. One is described as a suffering servant, the other as a warrior. Today our program looks at the Bible’s evidence for a suffering Messiah.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Over the next few programs on Foundations, we’ll be digging into the concept in Judaism that there are actually two Messiahs. To this day, Jewish rabbis and their students ponder this conundrum, wondering in which manner Messiah will arrive.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ve spent a bit of time moving verse by verse through Isaiah 53 in our series on the Messiah. We’ll wrap up our time this is fantastic chapter but our series on the Messiah is far from over.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re in the middle of a series on the identity of the Messiah, and we’ve been spending some time looking verse by verse of Isaiah 53.

We’ll continue to look a verse at a time of Isaiah chapter 53, a chapter that is often referred to as the forbidden chapter.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We’re continuing our conversation today on the forbidden chapter in the Bible that describes the Messiah. Isaiah 53.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Our focus on Foundations for a few weeks now has been the identity of the Messiah. We’re looking into the forbidden chapter of the Bible that seems to very clearly and accurately describe Jesus as the Messiah. We’ll continue that conversation today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ve mentioned before on Foundations how sometimes rabbis will use a different interpretation of Scripture in order to avoid a conclusion that would rest on Jesus identity. We’re in the middle of a series on Foundations at the moment about the identity of the Messiah and we’re going to look into a chapter of the Bible that rabbis haven’t typically taught their congregations from for a long time in order to avoid some uncomfortable questions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The struggle for many rabbis today is that there are many descriptions of the Messiah in the Bible that easily point to Jesus, however, to deal with that problem, reinterpretation has become a matter of course.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re focusing on the identity of Messiah on Foundations at the moment, there are many references to this person in Scripture and today we’re going to look at a description in Zechariah.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our last program on Foundations, we looked at the description of the Messiah in Psalm 22, and this time we’ll be looking at the stunning similarities of Psalm 22 and the New Covenant description of Jesus’ suffering in the New Covenant.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re in the middle of journey on Foundations focused the identity of the Messiah, and in the next couple of programs we’ll look specifically at the description of this person in Psalm 22.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On Foundations at the moment, we’re in a series focused on the Messiah. In our last program, we started looking at the fact that there are many belief systems who believe in a messiah, but we’re going to continue looking at the Biblical claims about the Messiah and the evidence for Him.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
You might not know this, but Christianity and Judaism aren’t the only belief systems who believe in a Messiah. We’re going to examine this phenomenon on Foundations for a few programs but it’s really important we understand who the correct Messiah is and we’ll be focusing on the Biblical claims.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today on Foundations we’re going to look at the concept of God becoming a human being through the lens of a Jewish worldview.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll continue our previous conversation about the criticism that the Bible has simply plagiarised the concept of God having a son from ancient pagan religions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
For those who try to discredit the Bible, often they’ll use the criticism that a deity having a son didn’t originate with the Bible, but is fact a pagan mythical belief that the Bible copied. That’s an issue we’re going to tackle today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our program today on Foundations, we’re continuing to look at Daniel’s prophecy about the coming of Messiah, but in particular, what the correct starting point was for the beginning of the countdown.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Bible prophecy can be very confusing because there’s so much symbolism and the terminology can get quite distracting as well. We’re going to look at the mysterious seventy sevens mentioned by Gabriel to the prophet Daniel, when he detailed the coming of the Messiah.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Jews and Christians are both longing for the Messiah, and on Foundations today we’re going to look at the prophecy of Daniel, that described in quite a bit of detail the coming of the Messiah.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We’re going to start a new series on Foundation, all focused on the Messiah and what the Bible said about Him. In this program we’re going to look at the prophecy that said He’d be born of a Virgin.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Jewish people are God’s chosen people. The Bible says this clearly. But why did God decide to choose that particular group of people? Why didn’t He choose another ethnic people? That’s the topic of our conversation today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The word Hallelujah is one of the most commonly known words among all the cultures of the world and yet many people have no idea it’s a Hebrew word, let alone what it means. That’s what we’ll be learning about today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll be learning about fear on Foundations today, mostly about how to understand it by knowing the context the word is used in. It’s a lesson for every word found in Scripture.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Does God pray? If so, who does He pray to since He’s God and already knows all things? We’re continuing our conversation on the topic of Tefilah ? the Hebrew word for prayer on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
To some people prayer is easy and comes naturally, for others, it’s a real struggle. To the Jewish mind, Tefilah - prayer - is a much deeper more intimate interaction with God. There’s also the belief that God Himself prays. That’s the concept we’ll be looking at on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our previous program, we began looking at the topic of blaspheming against the Holy Spirit. We’ll continue and conclude that conversation today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There’s a prevailing attitude in Christendom that all we need to do to share the Gospel is do good deeds for those in need?is that true or does the Bible indicate something else?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll be looking for the real treasure chest on Foundations today and the hint is that it has something to do with the ark? But which one? That’s our conversation today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Every year the natural seasons come and go, and then repeat the process the next year. There are seasons in our lives as well, good times and bad times and there are also religious seasons too. In this program we’ll take a look at those seasons that the Jewish people remember each year.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll be continuing our conversation today on Foundations about the unexpected and yet wonderful insights that can be discovered, even in the boring genealogical lists found in the Bible.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Most of us get a little tired when we read through the Bible and come to yet another long list of names for yet another genealogy. However, sometimes when you dig a little deeper, even the boring lists of names contain hidden treasures.

We’ll be finishing up our conversation on Foundation on the topic of rain, and the different kinds of rain that God brings to His people and the land and what they mean physically and spiritually. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Rain is essential to life, and yet God promised a land inheritance that gets very little rain and promised that it would be very fruitful. However, God put His people in the land we know as Israel to ensure they would always have to trust Him for their survival. That’s the topic of conversation today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On our program today, we’ll conclude our conversation about the Menorah, the Golden Lampstand that originally stood in the Temple. Looking at what all the parts of the beautiful lamp symbolised and what its significance is. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations we’re going to spend a couple of programs learning about the beautiful golden candelabra that is the official symbol of the State of Israel.

See omny.fm/listener for privacy information.
Our conversation continues today regarding the will of God. A topic that can be confusing to many, and in this program we’re going to understand a little better God’s permissive will. The things that God allows us to do that are part of His process of leading, teaching and guiding us.See omny.fm/listener for privacy information.
We’ll be continuing our conversation today on Foundations about the will of God, in particular the things God requires according to His precepts, things that God has established according to His commandments.See omny.fm/listener for privacy information.

There’s some contention within Christendom on the topic of original sin, some people don’t even know what it is! Today on Foundations we’re going to look at this topic and see if it’s Christian or Jewish in its origin.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today on Foundations we’re going to continue the conversation on the comparisons of the Mosaic Priesthood and the Priesthood of Messiah. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today on Foundations we’ll continue our conversation about sin and whether it’s an action or a condition within the human heart, and maybe even the antidote. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In Foundations today, we’ll take a look at sin. Is it an action, or is it a condition? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
For many, the idea that forgiveness can’t be obtained without blood being shed is both confusing and abhorrent. It’s a tough issue, but we’ll be covering it today on Foundations.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Our conversation on Foundations today is going to be on the issue of faith and works. If ever there was a controversial issue in Christianity, this is it! However, they’re more connected than we realise and that’s going to be our focus.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The prophet Daniel was a devout man, he endured a lot in his life, and he achieved a lot in his life. He was respected, loved and hated in equal measure by different groups of people. One thing is for sure about him though?Daniel knew how to pray. That’s the focus of our conversation today on Foundations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today on Foundations we’re going to look at a simple Hebrew word that’s used regularly, but has a very deep, and rich double meaning. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Over the past few programs, we’ve learned about the Sabbath day.

There are lots of uses of the word ’blessing’ in the Bible and we use it a lot in our daily interactions with each other as well. Even non-Christians use the word blessing. But what does this word actually mean? That’s what our conversation will be about today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Christians and most Jews believe that God is good. However, there are some who claim God cannot be good because of some of the commands He’s given in His Word. We began to tackle the challenge of God being good last time on Foundations, and we’ll conclude the conversation of the program today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There’s a common phrase often used by Christians that says 'God is Good'. Invariable, the response by other Christians is, 'All the time.' Then the reverbing response is, 'All the time, God is good.' However, there are some who say that considering all the terrible things going on in the world, God can’t possibly be good. We’ll have a conversation to tackle that accusation today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re concluding our short series on the relationship between God and man, we’ve learned how the Bible describes God’s relationship with Israel as a marriage, and we’ve learned about the ancient Jewish wedding where we could see clearly Jesus and His future Bride, and we’re about to finish our time in the book of Ruth, which gives us a picture of Israel with a broken marriage relationship being restored, with the acceptance of a Gentile bride and a Jewish redeemer. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Our series on Foundations about God and man continues today, in particular we’re continuing our conversation about the book of Ruth.

That’s our topic in today’s program.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
For the last couple of programs, we’ve been learning about the book of Ruth, the relationship dynamics in that story and the prophetic picture that seems to be emerging about the relationship between Jesus Christ and the church.

Particularly, we’ll be looking at places in the Bible where God described the nation of Israel as His wife and the concept of them being ’one’.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Most Christians believe that the Law has absolutely no bearing on us at all, that’s it’s an Old Covenant system that’s no longer in operation for those who belong to the New Covenant. We’re going to look at a New Covenant event that challenged the first church in Jerusalem to see what conclusions they came to on this issue.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ve been learning on Foundations that the Law was given to man so he would know not only what God’s standards and expectations are, but that we’re incapable of observing them. Today we’ll look at the consequences on the Jewish people for their rebellion against God’s standards and begin to look at the application for our own lives in our modern age. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
After God gave His Law to Moses on Mt Sinai, it became apparent very quickly that it was almost impossible for His people to keep it. And yet, the Law was important to reveal the standards of God, and what His expectations were. That’s the topic of discussion on Foundations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Christians tend to look down their noses at the Law given to Moses, as though the Law is a terrible thing. However, Paul said that the Law is Holy, it was given by God for a purpose. That’s going to be our focus for a few days on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’e been learning some safe boundaries for ourselves when it comes to studying future prophecy to be fulfilled, we’ll wrap that conversation up on Foundations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Bible prophecy is fascinating, especially speculating on what might happen in the future. This is why fortune tellers and clairvoyants are so popular! Bible prophecy buffs can be just as excitable, but there are some important things to remember and understand when studying Bible prophecy and that’s what we’re going to start talking about on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today on Foundations, we’ll conclude our conversations about the significance of thorns in the Bible.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Thorns will be out conversation topic today on Foundations. We think of thorns and simply think of the torturous mocking crown that was pushed onto Jesus head when He was crucified. But the thorns represent so much more. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On our program today, we’re going to look at how praise is actually linked to victory, in the Hebrew language. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re continuing our conversation on Foundations today about whether Jesus lost His cool when He drove people out of the Temple, or cursed a poor fig tree for not having any fruit when it wasn’t fig season. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Reading the New Covenant (or the Old) without context or having even a light understanding of the culture of the time, can leave you scratching your head over some of the things people did. Some people feel that way about Jesus as well. He was so loving and gracious and forgiving, and then He seeming get angry with a fig tree and curse it, or make a whip and drive people out of the Temple. Why did He do that? Was He in control, or did He completely lose control? That’s the focus on Foundations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On our program today, we’re going to look at how praise is actually linked to victory, in the Hebrew language. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ve touched on the word Hineni before, when we were learning that God called Abraham his friend, so this time we’re going to spend a little more time learning more clearly what hineni means.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Can you imagine what it must have been like for Abraham to be known as the ’friend of God’? That’s what we’ll be learning about today on Foundations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Feast of First Fruits is also separate to the Feast of Passover, but occurs so close to it, that it’s become part of the Passover week celebrations. We’ll learn about this feast, what it represents and how Jesus fulfils all of it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
While the Bible lists the Feast of Unleavened Bread separately from Passover, it occurs as soon as Passover finishes and today, Jews simply consider this feast as part of the Passover week of celebrations. We’ll learn how this particular feast of the Lord also presents Jesus as its fulfilment. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In the program today, we’ll continue to unpack the celebration of the Passover meal. We’ll learn about the third and fourth cups in the celebration and how the meal is concluded. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
One of the most important parts of celebrating the Passover meal is the telling of the story of Passover and why Jews around the world celebrate this meal every year. We’ll look at 4 important questions that are asked during the meal as well and learn about the 2nd cup of Passover and then what the different symbolic parts of the meal are and what they represent.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There are a number of symbolic elements in the Passover meal, and in our program today we’ll learn about The First Cup, the hand washing ceremony and the Maror, the inclusion of the green vegetable that’s so important for this meal. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our program today as we continue learning about Passover, we’ll learn about some of the particular elements of the meal as Jews celebrate Passover today. We’ll learn about leaven and the lighting of the Passover candles. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our program today we’ll continue learning about the Feast of Passover, and get some history as to why this feast became so important and significant to God’s people.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Feast of Passover is the first of the seven mandatory feasts of the Lord that God commanded His people Israel to observe every year. We’ll be learning about this feast over the coming days to learn what the feast entailed and how Jesus our Messiah fulfils every element of the Passover meal. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re going to finish our conversation about repeating our prayers to God, and to be tenacious with our prayer requests. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today we’ll look at a parable that seems to indicate that when we pray, we should repeat ourselves. Why would God require us to repeat our prayers to Him? He doesn’t have a bad memory? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll finish our conversation today on Foundations about the Trinity, probably still agreeing that it’s a mystery, but maybe not quite so impossible to understand. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re going to continue our conversation about the Trinity, because it’s important to understand because the Bible speaks about it. It’s a mystery to be sure, but then if God was easy to understand, He wouldn’t be God. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The concept of the Trinity has created headaches for people for millennia. It’s very hard to understand, and yet, it’s clearly evident in Scripture. We’re going to tackle this mystery to see if we can find some understanding. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re going to continue our conversation on Foundations about the blessing of the dew that greets us early in the morning. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today, we’ll be looking at the differences between rain and dew, and see why dew is such a blessing. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We know that the Jewish people are known as the Hebrews, but what is a Hebrew? What does that word even mean? That’s what we’ll be looking at today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We continue our conversation today on Foundations about the importance of the Old Covenant, that’s it’s not obsolete and in fact is necessary to properly understand the New Covenant. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Sadly, there’s a prevailing belief within Christendom that the Old Covenant is obsolete and therefore, we don’t need to know it or read it anymore; that’s it’s no longer relevant? We’ll challenge that view today on Foundations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We learned last time that the Talmud of the Jewish people, describes the Messiah as a leper, and we’ll look at how that concept can be ? or not ? reconciled with Biblical prophecy about Messiah.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Our program today looks at the conceptual idea that the Jewish Messiah would be like a leper, something Messiah is described as in the Jewish Talmud. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our previous program we began looking at the apparent revealing of two different Messiahs in Bible prophecy, one who would suffer and the other who would be a warrior. We’ll bring those possibilities together in our program today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our program today we’re going to look at the issue that Bible prophecy appears to describe two different Messiahs, a suffering servant and a warrior king. Which one’s correct? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We learn pretty quickly that everything in the Bible, no matter how day to day or mundane, has significance to help us understand important spiritual lessons. That’s our focus today when we wrap up our conversation about the ear piercing of slaves and possibly, why it had to be done against a wooden door.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll continue our conversations about the practice of piercing the earlobes of slaves who decide they want to remain with their masters rather than being set free.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today we’re going to begin looking into the ancient practice of piercing the earlobe of a slave.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll be continuing our conversation today on Foundations about the identity of the suffering man of sorrows described in Isaiah 53. There’s great debate between Jews and Christians, and sometimes Isaiah 53 is completely left out of Synagogue readings. The identity of this man is essential to know.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today on Foundations we’re going to look into Isaiah 53 again, and this time focus a little more on the identity of the man who suffers so much. There’s a difference of opinion between the Jewish understanding and the Christian understanding. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
While the feast of Purim isn’t a mandatory Feast of the Lord, it’s a very important feast in the Jewish calendar. We’ve been learning about the how’s and why’s, and we’ll continue learning about this feast, but particularly from a Messianic Jewish perspective.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our program today, we’ll continue the story of Queen Esther of Persia, whose uncle Mordecai became the focus of irrational hatred by evil Haman, who plotted to wipe out entirely, every Jew living in the kingdom of Persia. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The annual holiday of Purim is a celebration and remembrance of another time in Israel’s history when a plot was formed against them to exterminate them. In today’s program we’ll go back in time to ancient Persia, and a young Jewish girl who became queen and who would save her people. Her name was Esther.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today, we’re going to wrap up our series on the names of God, and there are so many more beyond these ones. All these names reveal to us the kind of character and attributes He has and how He wants to reveal Himself to us. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll be learning about the name Yahweh Tsidkenu, a name of God ? among many names ? that reveal more of His nature and character so that we can comprehend a little more what our God is like. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today, we’re going to focus on the name Yahweh Ra’ah, another name that reveals another facet of God’s fathomless nature and character.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
All the different names of God reveal different characteristics and attributes about Him. The name we’re focusing on this time is Yahweh Shalom.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today, we’ll be learning about the name Yahweh m’Kaddesh, to see what it reveals about God’s character.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re in the middle of a series on Foundations about the different names of God. In this program, we’re going to learn about the name Yahweh Nissi.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Yahweh Rapha is another name of God in Scripture, we’ll be learning what particular attributes this name reveals about Him. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Our series on the names of God continues in Foundations, specifically we’ll be looking at the name Yahweh Jireh on this program.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re in a series at the moment on Foundations that’s exploring the different names attributed to God, names that reveal more about His nature and character. On today’s program, we’re learning about the name of Yahweh.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re learning about the names of God on Foundations, there are many names that are used to describe Him and each name reveals more of His nature and character. On Foundations today, we’re going to learn about the name Adonai.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In Scripture, God reveals Himself in many ways, and each time He’s given a name that describes the character trait He’s just revealed to His people. In Foundations, we’re going to look at the name El Qanna.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations we’re in a series about the different names God uses to reveal Himself to His people. In this program, we’ll be learning about the name El Elyon.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our series on the names of God, we’ve learned about different facets of God’s nature that are revealed through those names. This time we’ll learn about the name El Olam. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ve been talking for the past couple of programs about the different names of God, and how His various names identify various different aspects of His character. In this program, we’ll be learning about the name El Shaddai.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today, we’ll continue our series on the different names of God, today we’ll learn about El Roi.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re going to begin a series on Foundations about the names of God. We’ll begin with Elohim. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Very few people get excited when reading the book of Leviticus, because it’s a long list of laws and rules and consequences. However, what makes God’s Law so unique and distinct from the rest of the ancient world, was the equality that God’s Law demanded of His people. No separate rules for the wealthy and elite. That’s our focus today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
If you’ve ever studied different cultures in the ancient world, you learn pretty quickly that when it came to the law, there were different standards and consequences depending on who was being tried. The wealthy, connected and elite often got away with things, or were given lenient sentences when compared to the common fold. In ancient Israel, God’s Law was different, it was a level playing field and social status was irrelevant. In God’s eyes, the Law applies equally to all. That’s the real treasure from Mt Sinai.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today we’ll keep looking at the idea that God can forget our sins, even though we know God doesn’t have a bad memory and nothing is impossible for Him.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We love the idea that when God forgives us of our sins that He doesn’t remember them anymore. After all, who wants to be reminded of every terrible thing they’ve ever said, done or thought! But, if God knows everything, how can He forget what we’ve done? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Last time we looked at a peculiar word in the ancient Hebrew text of the Bible, that is actually untranslatable and we’re going to continue the conversation to see if we can discover what it means. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Have you ever read a word in the Bible you didn’t understand and simply skip over it? That’s pretty normal really, but what do you do about a word that’s untranslatable and so is dropped from the Bible altogether? We’re going to look at such a word today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We began a conversation last time regarding human beings being cracked pots, broken because of sin. Fortunately for us, our God specialises in repairing cracked pots and it’s a good thing to remind ourselves that He and He alone deserves the glory for every life He rescues and restores.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Usually referring to someone as a crackpot, means you think they’re crazy, but the Bible talks about human beings as earthen vessels, pots made of clay from God’s hand of creation. Because of sin we’re broken?kind of like cracked pots. That the topic of conversation today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
When we read the Bible, it’s easy to become confused about some things that are said, but that doesn’t mean what’s said is wrong. Context and culture are really important. Jesus also said some things that can be confusing and we’re going to continue our previous conversation about that very thing.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
When we read through the Gospels, sometimes we can become confused about some of the things Jesus said. Usually, it’s confusion because we’re missing the cultural context. That’s what we’ll take a look at on Foundations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re going to continue our conversation about orphans, and what it meant to be an orphan adopted into a Roman family during the days of the Roman Empire, and what that means for us as believers today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Paul described those of us who don’t know Christ, especially Gentile’s, as orphans, and that when we come to faith in Christ, we’re adopted in the family of God and therefore, are no longer orphans. What did that mean in the ancient Roman Empire world? That’s what we’ll take a look at on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Making vows is serious business as far as the Bible is concerned. Making vows to people is serious and making vows to God is even more serious and we’re going to continue that conversation on Foundations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There are many ancient Middle Eastern traditions that we don’t know about or understand, and one of them is the tradition of corban?making vows. That’s what we’ll take a look at on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Last time we looked at the curious description the Bible has of human beings being like sheep. We also have a God who is described as being our Shepherd. We’ll continue that conversation on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Nobody wants to be described as an animal, however, the Bible describes human beings as being like sheep, and with good reason. We tend to behave just like them in so many ways. We also know that sheep desperately need a shepherd to look after them. We have a God who is called the Good Shepherd and that’s what we’ll be learning about on Foundations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re going to continue our conversation on knowing who our King is, and also on how we should approach our King. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There’s quite a bit of confusion about not only knowing who our King is, but how we’re supposed to approach our King. Because the Bible says we can come boldly to the throne of God, does that mean we can come flippantly, or casually? These are questions we’ll be tackling on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re going to conclude our conversation about the meaning of the name Christ, and why it’s so significant.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations we’re going to look at the meaning of the name ’Christ’. Too many people, Christ is Jesus’ surname, and nothing could be further from the truth. In Jewish culture, names have meaning and the name Christ, or the Hebrew equivalent, is really significant. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll continue our conversation on Foundations about how our God, unlike other gods and mythical deities, is beyond definition. He cannot be defined or contained with any kind of human constraints. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
It’s human to want definitive definitions about who God is and what He’s like. However, the more we learn about God, the more we learn that we don’t know much about Him at all. Unlike the gods of the ancient world who were defined specifically for their individual roles, our God is beyond human definition and understanding. He’s too vast, too lofty and too undefinable. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll be continuing our conversation today about the return of Christ and when this momentous event might take place. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
One of the greatest doctrines of the Christian faith is the return of Christ, His second coming. Many have tried to predict when His coming will be, and just as many have failed in their predictions. The Bible says that no one knows the hour or the day, but can we know approximately when He’s coming back? That’s our conversation today on Foundations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Some people read the New Covenant and conclude that Jesus just loved everyone to bits. Others read the Bible and conclude He was incredibly judgmental and harsh. Which of these views is correct? We’ll be looking today on Foundations about whether Jesus was loving or a severe judge.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today we’ll wrap up our look at the western industrialised worldview that has wrongly viewed and interpreted the Bible from that vantage point. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ve heard the term, ’Clash of Cultures’ many times, and in truth, this clash of cultures can make it very hard for Christians in the west to understand the Bible, which is from the east?the Middle East to be exact and to the Middle Eastern mind, that makes the west a bit weird.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Jewish history and culture is confusing to most in the west, and that’s primarily because an eastern mindset is foreign to us. It’s weird, but in our program today we’ll be looking at a different definition of weird and it’s based on western ideology.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
For many Christians, reading the Old Covenant rules and regulations is very confusing, and often times seems like foolishness. Everything however was for good reason, and today we’ll be looking at the prohibition of mixing wool with linen.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Terrorism came solidly into the west with the attack on 9/11. Terrorism was very prevalent in the ancient world and many critics of the Bible have condemned God as being something of a terrorist. But we’ve been learning about what God’s Word actually says and that’s what our focus is today on Foundations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Unfortunately, terrorism has become far too much a part of our lives in recent years, for the most part, something we’ve been unused to. But terrorism has been around for millennia and we’ll be looking into the Torah to see what God has to say about it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We finish our time together on Foundations learning about the tassels worn by Jewish men. The symbolism is rich and significant, but now we learn what it means for us who believe in Jesus. Are they for us or not? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today we’re continuing our look at the wearing of tassels on the garments of all Jewish men, and in particular the symbolism of authority associated with the hem of a man’s garment. A garment that even Jesus wore.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There are a lot of laws in the Old Covenant that seems strange to the modern, western mind, one of those laws is the requiring of Jewish men to wear tassels on the corners of the garments. In fact, religious Jews wear them to this day. What do they mean? That’s what we’ll begin learning about today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today on Foundations, we’ll wrap up our series on the characters in the Nativity story with a series of questions asking is it possible? At the end, you can draw your own conclusions. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
God had promised to send a Messiah for His people, but for the Messiah to come, He needed human parents to raise and protect Him. Joseph and Mary were God’s chosen and they were a remarkable yet simple and humble couple. Today on Foundations we’ll learn about this wonderful pair. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Everyone involved in the Christmas story are important, and quite often the Shepherds are seen as background characters, but we’ll discover today why the Shepherds were actually crucial players in this story.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re in the lead up to Christmas and we’re learning each day about the different people who played crucial roles in the narrative. Today we’ll learn about the priesthood. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On the program today we’re going to look at the characters of Herod the Great and the Romans who governed in Jerusalem and how they reacted to the news of a new born King of the Jews.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In Foundations today, as we lead up to Christmas, we’ll look some more at the role of Daniel and the Magi and how their knowledge of the heavens led them to believe their Messiah had finally arrived. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our program today we’re going to begin looking at all the characters who make the Christmas story so rich in meaning. Specifically today we’ll look at the role of the Magi, and how Daniel and his friends may have had more to do with them than we may have realised. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Even though Hanukkah isn’t a mandatory feast, even this annual celebration is a picture of Jesus, who is the Light of the world. That’s what we’ll be learning about during today’s program.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In Foundations today we’ll continue to learn about Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights, and the miracle that took place centuries ago during the rededication of the Temple. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Feast of Hanukkah isn’t one of the Mandatory Feasts of the Lord, but it is an annual celebration that even Jesus participate in. The New Covenant calls it the Festival of Lights. It’s to commemorate the rededication of the Temple. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
An ancient Jewish practice of rabbis was to look for commonalities or connections between passages when a word or phrase was repeated. In this way, they’d be able to connect those words or events, and deepen the meaning and richness of God’s Word, revealing multi-levels of understanding. This process is termed ’stringing pearls’ and that’s what we’ll be looking at on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In today’s program, we’ll spend some time in Isaiah 53, a chapter that describes great suffering and sorrow by the person we know as Messiah. Why did He suffer and who did He suffer for?and who was He? That’s what we’ll try to determine today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today Foundations looks at how Jesus used an unclean item in one of His parables, an unclean item He declared priceless. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
God often declared certain things to be unclean, and yet, a simple sprinkling of blood or the ashes of a sacrifice could transform the unclean thing into something clean and acceptable. How can that be? That’s the focus on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Apostle Paul taught us to pray without ceasing, a difficult and high calling to be sure. While we might look negatively upon Jewish traditions, they have developed the habit of praying to God in all situations throughout their day, no matter how mundane. It’s a curious thought, but something we can learn from.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Not all customs and traditions are bad, and some of the customs and traditions within Jewish prayer are lovely, rich and full of meaning. That’s what we’ll begin learning about today on Foundations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Our program today looks at some of the characters God used to achieve His purposes, wondering how on earth He could not only use, but actually choose some of these people who did some really dreadful things. How could God choose such people to be His representatives to the world?
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re learning about judging on a personal basis, ’measure for measure’, and today we’ll be looking at the situation of Job and his friends and how they misapplied this kind of judging when they observed all the loss and hardships that Job had experienced.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There are different kinds of judging mentioned in the Bible, in Foundations we’re going to look at the issue of judging others, but on a more personal level, at least what this kind of judging should look like.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Women’s Lib has done some good for women, but it’s also done a lot of damage. We’ve been looking at how the Bible views women, specifically Ruth and Rahab, and in this program we’ll be spending more time in the New Covenant to see how the early church and Paul’s letters considered women.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In many cultures throughout history, women have fought for their place and not always successfully. In Foundations we’re going to look at how the Bible viewed women, in particular we’re going to look at the lives of two women, Ruth and Rahab.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Western mind often struggles to rightly understand what the Bible is communicating because we don’t understand the cultural nuances of the ancient people it was writing about and to. This often means we impose modern Western culture into an ancient Middle Eastern context and it can really mess up our conclusions. This is the conversation we’re continuing on Foundations today.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
One of the biggest challenges for the church in the West, is grasping so much of the Middle Eastern ethnic understanding of the Bible and the cultures in which it was written. That’s what we’ll begin looking at in Foundations today.

Today on Foundations, we’re going to look a Hebrew words and the incredible wisdom and depth that are found in them.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In our last program we looked at the fact that the Bible tells us to fear God. Some people have misunderstood this and often with good reason, it hasn’t always been taught well throughout the centuries. We’ll wrap up this topic today on Foundations.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Bible tells us that we’re supposed to fear God?does that mean we’re supposed to be terrified of Him? That’s what our conversation will be about on the program today.

If ever there was a misunderstood topic in the Bible, it’s the topic of judging. People don’t realise that there are times when we are required to judge and there are times when we’re not.

In our program today we’re going to look at a verse in the Gospel of Matthew that at first seems out of place and second, seems a little bit superstitious.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’ll continue our previous conversation about the criticism that the Bible has simply plagiarised the concept of God having a son from ancient pagan religions.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The rabbis of the ancient world ? and today ? hand selected their students, their disciples, whom they would teach about God’s Law and how they were to live.

Thorns will be out conversation topic today on Foundations. We think of thorns and simply think of the torturous mocking crown that was pushed onto Jesus head when He was crucified. But the thorns represent so much more.

We’re continuing our conversation on Foundations today about whether Jesus lost His cool when He drove people out of the Temple, or cursed a poor fig tree for not having any fruit when it wasn’t fig season.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Reading the New Covenant (or the Old) without context or having even a light understanding of the culture of the time, can leave you scratching your head over some of the things people did. Some people feel that way about Jesus as well. He was so loving and gracious and forgiving, and then He seeming get angry with a fig tree and curse it, or make a whip and drive people out of the Temple. Why did He do that? Was He in control, or did He completely lose control? That’s the focus on Foundations.

We’re going to finish our conversation about repeating our prayers to God, and to be tenacious with our prayer requests.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today we’ll look at a parable that seems to indicate that when we pray, we should repeat ourselves. Why would God require us to repeat our prayers to Him? He doesn’t have a bad memory?

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Sadly, there’s a prevailing belief within Christendom that the Old Covenant is obsolete and therefore, we don’t need to know it or read it anymore; that’s its no longer relevant? We’ll challenge that view today on Foundations.

We’ll finish our conversation today on Foundations about the Trinity, probably still agreeing that it’s a mystery, but maybe not quite so impossible to understand.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We’re going to continue our conversation about the Trinity, because it’s important to understand because the Bible speaks about it. It’s a mystery to be sure, but then if God was easy to understand, He wouldn’t be God.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The concept of the Trinity has created headaches for people for millennia. It’s very hard to understand, and yet, it’s clearly evident in Scripture. We’re going to tackle this mystery to see if we can find some understanding.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement is what we’ll continue learning about on Foundations today. It’s the time of the year ? the only day of the year ? when the Jewish High Priest was permitted to enter the Holy of Holies in the Temple to make atonement for the sins of the people. It was also a time of self-denial and we’ll learn about some of the requirements of the people during this sacred time.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Yom Kippur is the Day of Atonement in the Hebrew Calendar. It’s one of the mandatory Feasts of the Lord that God said His people were to observe every year. It’s also the most solemn and serious day of the year for the Jewish people.

We love the idea that when God forgives us of our sins that He doesn’t remember them anymore. After all, who wants to be reminded of every terrible thing they’ve ever said, done or thought! But, if God knows everything, how can He forget what we’ve done?

Last time we looked at a peculiar word in the ancient Hebrew text of the Bible, that is actually untranslatable and we’re going to continue the conversation to see if we can discover what it means.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Have you ever read a word in the Bible you didn’t understand and simply skip over it? That’s pretty normal really, but what do you do about a word that’s untranslatable and so is dropped from the Bible altogether? We’re going to look at such a word today on Foundations.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We began a conversation last time regarding human beings being cracked pots, broken because of sin. Fortunately for us, our God specialises in repairing cracked pots and it’s a good thing to remind ourselves that He and He alone deserves the glory for every life He rescues and restores.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Usually referring to someone as a crackpot, means you think they’re crazy, but the Bible talks about human beings as earthen vessels, pots made of clay from God’s hand of creation. Because of sin we’re broken?kind of like cracked pots. That the topic of conversation today on Foundations.

When we read the Bible, it’s easy to become confused about some things that are said, but that doesn’t mean what’s said is wrong. Context and culture are really important. Jesus also said some things that can be confusing and we’re going to continue our previous conversation about that very thing.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
When we read through the Gospels, sometimes we can become confused about some of the things Jesus said. Usually, it’s confusion because we’re missing the cultural context. That’s what we’ll take a look at on Foundations.

We’re going to continue our conversation about orphans, and what it meant to be an orphan adopted into a Roman family during the days of the Roman Empire, and what that means for us as believers today.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Paul described those of us who don’t know Christ, especially Gentile’s, as orphans, and that when we come to faith in Christ, we’re adopted in the family of God and therefore, are no longer orphans.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Nobody wants to be described as an animal, however, the Bible describes human beings as being like sheep, and with good reason. We tend to behave just like them in so many ways. We also know that sheep desperately need a shepherd to look after them. We have a God who is called the Good Shepherd and that’s what we’ll be learning about on Foundations.

We’re going to continue our conversation on knowing who our King is, and also on how we should approach our King.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There’s quite a bit of confusion about not only knowing who our King is, but how we’re supposed to approach our King. Because the Bible says we can come boldly to the throne of God, does that mean we can come flippantly, or casually? These are questions we’ll be tackling on Foundations.

We’re going to conclude our conversation about the meaning of the name Christ, and why it’s so significant.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations we’re going to look at the meaning of the name ’Christ’. To many people, Christ is Jesus’ surname, and nothing could be further from the truth. In Jewish culture, names have meaning and the name Christ, or the Hebrew equivalent, is really significant.

We’ll continue our conversation on Foundations about how our God, unlike other gods and mythical deities, is beyond definition. He cannot be defined or contained with any kind of human constraints.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
It’s human to want definitive definitions about who God is and what He’s like. However, the more we learn about God, the more we learn that we don’t know much about Him at all. Unlike the gods of the ancient world who were defined specifically for their individual roles, our God is beyond human definition and understanding. He’s too vast, too lofty and too undefinable.

It’s All About Context! ... Some people read the New Covenant and conclude that Jesus just loved everyone to bits. Others read the Bible and conclude He was incredibly judgmental and harsh.

One of the greatest doctrines of the Christian faith is the return of Christ, His second coming. Many have tried to predict when His coming will be, and just as many have failed in their predictions.

Terrorism came solidly into the west with the attack on 9/11. Terrorism was very prevalent in the ancient world and many critics of the Bible have condemned God as being something of a terrorist. But we’ve been learning about what God’s Word actually says and that’s what our focus is today on Foundations.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Unfortunately, terrorism has become far too much a part of our lives in recent years, for the most part, something we’ve been unused to. But terrorism has been around for millennia and we’ll be looking into the Torah to see what God has to say about it.

On Foundations at the moment, we’re in a series focused on the Messiah. In our last program, we started looking at the fact that there are many belief systems who believe in a messiah, but we’re going to continue looking at the Biblical claims about the Messiah and the evidence for Him.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
You might not know this, but Christianity and Judaism aren’t the only belief systems who believe in a Messiah. We’re going to examine this phenomenon on Foundations for a few programs but it’s really important we understand who the correct Messiah is and we’ll be focusing on the Biblical claims.

Jewish history and culture is confusing to most in the west, and that’s primarily because an eastern mindset is foreign to us. It’s weird, but in our program today we’ll be looking at a different definition of weird and it’s based on western ideology.

We finish our time together on Foundations learning about the tassels worn by Jewish men. The symbolism is rich and significant, but now we learn what it means for us who believe in Jesus. Are they for us or not?
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On Foundations today we’re continuing our look at the wearing of tassels on the garments of all Jewish men, and in particular the symbolism of authority associated with the hem of a man’s garment. A garment that even Jesus wore.

Our program today looks at some of the characters God used to achieve His purposes, wondering how on earth He could not only use, but actually choose some of these people who did some really dreadful things. How could God choose such people to be His representatives to the world?

We’re learning about judging on a personal basis, ’measure for measure’, and today we’ll be looking at the situation of Job and his friends and how they misapplied this kind of judging when they observed all the loss and hardships that Job had experienced.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There are different kinds of judging mentioned in the Bible, in Foundations we’re going to look at the issue of judging others, but on a more personal level, at least what this kind of judging should look like.
