Love fulfills everything the law required. Think about it. The law sets sort of minimum limits for how we should behave: don't kill, don't steal, don't commit adultery. And legalist can get all caught up in defining those limits. "If I don't claim this on my taxes is that stealing? Am I really killing someone if I'm just holding a grudge? Is it really adultery if it's just an emotional affair?" Love doesn't even go there! Biblical Love takes a sacrificial, other-facing posture. This is the Love Jesus modeled for us. It doesn't ask where the line is drawn. It's focused on giving generously, which is the opposite of stealing. Love is focused on commitment and honesty, which is the opposite of cheating. It builds up others and speaks life to them, which is the opposite of killing. Love out does anything the law requires. Which is why the Bible says, "For the whole law is fulfilled in one word; you shall love your neighbor as yourself."

In John 15:9, Jesus says "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love." So how do we remain in His love? Verse 10: "If you keep my commands you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commands and remain in his love." So what did Jesus command? Verse 12: "My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you." Nothing here about the Mosaic rituals. It's all about love! And how do we love one another as Jesus loved us? Verse 13: "Greater love has no one than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends." Jesus laid down His life for us in the ultimate act of love, and He calls us to do the same thing for our neighbors. Not in the form of a crucifixion, of course, but as a living sacrifice, dedicating our lives to loving and serving one another, rather than ourselves. This is how we keep His commands.

Our Hebrew Roots friends often suggest that the four prohibitions given to Gentile believers in Acts 15 are a sort of "starter pack" for keeping the law. They claim verse 21 teaches that Gentile believers will begin attending synagogue every Sabbath to learn the whole law of Moses. But the New Testament nowhere talks about Gentiles being taught the law, or keeping the law, or being expected to keep the law. And more than that, in John 16, as Jesus is explaining to His disciples about the persecution that they're going to endure because they follow Him, He says, "They will put you out of the synagogues." Wow. So if even Jewish followers of Jesus are going to be kicked out of the synagogues, why would we expect Gentile believers to be welcomed in? No, those prohibitions weren't a Law of Moses "starter pack," they were given to foster unity between Jewish and Gentiles believers in the early days of the new Christian church.

Biblical prophecy is a huge topic. We cover a number of important issues that you may not be aware of (or may not have considered) when it comes to understanding it. We lean into Scripture and look at how the Bible interprets its own prophecies to help us better understand them and discover that, in most cases, we never could have guessed how they were going to be fulfilled!

When we hear the word "law" today, we immediately think of legislation and legal rules of conduct. And this is why translating the Hebrew word "torah" into English as "law" often misses the mark. I mean, we don't usually view tax laws, for example, as the teaching and instruction of a loving government, right? But that's what "torah" is; it's the teaching of a loving heavenly Father. Now, can "torah" mean law? Absolutely! But in Scripture, the creation story, and God's calling of Abraham, and Jacob wrestling with God are every bit as much torah as the Commandments given at Sinai. So when we read the English word "law" in the Bible we should equate it with the idea of teaching and instruction. Especially since, because of the work of Jesus, Christians aren't bound by the regulations of the Old Covenant law. And yet, we can still meditate on God's torah today—on the teaching and instruction of our loving Heavenly Father.

We often see in the opening of Paul's letters the phrase "grace and peace." Interestingly, a typical Greek greeting in Paul’s day was chairein, which means “greetings.” For example, we see chairein used in the letter the Jerusalem Council wrote (Acts 15:23). But Paul sort of "Christianized" the greeting by changing the greeting from chairein to charis, which means “grace." And to that word, he added (sometimes in Aramaic or Hebrew letters) the typical Hebrew greeting of "shalom," which of course means peace. (In Greek its eirēnē.) So Paul’s using this sort of mixed phrase charis and shalom: Grace & Peace. The fact that he included both typical Greek and Hebrew greetings in his salutations " Charis and Shalom" suggests that Paul was writing to a mixed audience including both Jews and Gentiles. And that he considered them equals in the eyes of God. Grace and peace!

Here's an honest question for my “Torah-observant” Christian friends: What thoughts occupy your mind when it comes to your faith? Is your attention fixed on the Gospel, and the saving work and New Covenant of Jesus? Or would you say—and be honest here—that you spend more time thinking about Moses and the Torah and the Old Covenant rituals like eating kosher and keeping the Torah feasts and the weekly Shabbat? It's easy to get so distracted trying to follow the rituals of Moses that we miss the Gospel of Jesus. Jesus warned that focusing on the Hebrew Scriptures can cause us to miss the most important thing. He said, ““You search the Scriptures (the OT) because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me, yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life” (John 5:39-40). What we behold we become. Are you focused on becoming like Jesus or Moses?

In today's passage, the author begins to look at the high priesthood of the Messiah, Jesus, and show how He is a better high priest than any that came before Him. (In fact, he will use the priesthood of Jesus over the coming chapters to show His superiority over the entire Old Covenant system of rituals and worship that the priests were in charge of.) The reason he’s drawing these comparisons is because the author is writing to a primarily Jewish audience who were enduring persecution for their faith in Jesus, both from their non-believing Jewish friends and family, and from the Roman government, for whom Christianity was an illegal religion and would be for the next few centuries. So these Jewish believers were being tempted to drift back to the Old Covenant temple rituals and priesthood that they were so used to. Because that would ease the pressure they were feeling because of their faith in Christ. And the author’s continuous refrain is "Hold fast to your faith! Hold fast to your confidence in Christ!"

Most people know about Jesus’ brother, James who was the head of the Jerusalem church and wrote the book of James. (“James the Just” they called him.) But did you know Jesus had three other brothers and at least two sisters? (Or, I suppose, they would be half brothers and sisters.) When Jesus preached in His hometown synagogue, everyone was amazed and they said, “Isn’t this Mary’s son and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us?” Mark 6:3, NIV. But not even his immediate family understood who Jesus was and what His mission was. After he appointed the 12 apostles, they went into a home and a crowd of people gathered that was so large they weren’t able to eat. And Mark 3 says, “When his family heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.” (Mark 3:21). And, of course, Jesus would ultimately declare, “Whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.” (Matt 12:50).

What is sin? The Bible says, “Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness” (1 John 3:4). The Greek word behind “lawlessness” is ἀνομία (anomia), and in this verse, it speaks of rebellion and disobedience in general. Its not limited to breaking the Old Testament law. The Bible defines sin most simply as rebellion against God. It’s disobeying His will and His commands for us. So for those who were under the law of Moses, breaking that law was sinful, of course. But sin is much bigger than that! In fact, Romans 5 says “sin was in the world before the law was given” (Rom. 5:13, see Gen 4:7; 13:13; 18:20; 39:9). So if we merely define sin as a transgression of the Law of Moses, then Adam and Eve never sinned, because they didn’t break any of those commands. Thankfully, when we come to faith in Jesus, “we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace” (Ephesians 1:7).

In this episode we study Jeremiah’s Old Covenant prophecy announcing God’s promise of a New Covenant in Jeremiah 31:31–34. We’re going to answer the question: How does New Covenant differ from the Old Covenant? What exactly makes it new? We’ll look at its historical and prophetic context, the essence of what it is, and its fulfillment as prophecy. We’ll also look at who the New Covenant was made with and what it means that God will write his law (or his Torah) on their hearts. And in our discussion, we’ll be drawing a bit from the book Sealed with an Oath by Paul Williamson. We’ll also bring in comments from several other scholars. And I think you’re going to find this fascinating discussion.

There is something really interesting about the answer Jesus gave when He was asked:

36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”
37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
(Matthew 22)

Jesus links these commands, which both come from the Torah. (Deuteronomy 6:5, Leviticus 19:18). And Jesus says this two-fold command fulfills the essence of not just the Law, but the entire Old Testament. Love is God’s highest priority. Paul put it this way: “For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself’ (Gal. 5:14). And it's interesting to note that neither of those greatest commandments come from the 10 Commandments. In fact, Jesus is saying that the 10 Commandments, or any other commandments, can’t be fully understood or rightly obeyed unless these two commandments are observed first. God’s highest priority is love.

"Every once in a while, I share some of my music on this channel. (For those who don't know, I am a former professional musician and composer.) For Easter weekend, I wanted to offer my dramatic orchestral arrangement of the famous hymn 'When I Survey the Wondrous Cross,' as performed by the Nashville Praise Symphony, of which I was a member for 11 years. This arrangement explores the idea of this classic hymn being birthed through the emotions and experiences of the believers at the cross the day Jesus died. The music echoes the feelings they may have grappled with in watching Him die and how they ultimately processed His death through the lens of all that He had spoken while He was alive.
Happy Easter, everyone. He is risen!"

There are some fascinating connections between the Garden of Eden and the cross of Christ. Romans 5:18 NIV says, “Just as one trespass resulted in condemnation for all people, so also one righteous act resulted in justification and life for all people.” Rabbi Jason Sobel offers some fascinating connections from a Hebrew perspective. He says the reason Jesus died on a tree, is because in the very beginning we stole from a tree. And Christ’s hands were pierced because our hands stole from the tree. His side was pierced because Eve came from the side of Adam. Jesus is making atonement for Eve because she’s the one who led us into the first sin. A crown of thorns was put on His head because the curse of creation is that the ground will produce thorns and thistles. On the cross Jesus is taking the curse on himself, on his head, on his hands, in his side. He’s reversing and undoing what mankind did and reconciling us to God.

“My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Matt 27:46 Why did Jesus say these words on the cross? Many think it’s because he felt forsaken, or because He took on the full weight of the sin of humanity and God turned his face away from Him. But actually, Jesus was quoting Psalm 22:1. And he knew that by quoting the first line of that Psalm, his Jewish listeners would immediately understand the context of the entire Psalm and apply it to Jesus. This is a rabbinic technique called remez. And if you read Psalm 22 all the way through it’s uncanny the ways that it foretells exactly what Jesus experienced. Read it for yourself! You’ll get chills. It begins as a lament of suffering but then turns to a cry of praise. And the last line of the Psalm is one word in Hebrew: asah. This is typically translated “he has done it.” But it can also mean “it is finished.” Which is the last word Jesus spoke on the cross (John 19:30).

Even from the cross, Jesus was teaching us.

Mark 7:1–23 is a passage that records Jesus clash with the Pharisees over traditions and commandments and what defiles a person. And this is a fascinating passage because we see how Jesus deals with different people, and we get a glimpse at His genius as a rabbi and a teacher in taking a particular confrontation or challenge from the Pharisees and elevating it to a profound teachable moment on an entirely different level. And, yes, we’re going to talk about that the controversial statement found in verse 19 about Jesus declaring all foods clean. But of course, it would be an injustice to the text to just pull that verse out on its own and talk about it. We want to understand the context of this entire passage and what’s going on here because it has a lot to teach us about Jesus and about walking out our faith today. So we’re going to do that first, and then we’ll circle back around and take a look at that provocative statement in verse 19.

In a recent episode of our Bible study series on Hebrews, we covered the idea of Jesus as our Sabbath rest. And it’s stirred up a bit of controversy and a lot of questions, so I wanted to release this stand-alone video that focuses solely on that aspect of Hebrews 4. Because when we understand this idea of Jesus being our ultimate rest, and how that fits into God’s overarching grand story of redemption, it helps us grasp a little more of how gracious God is for doing it this way, and the astounding significance of the work of Christ on our behalf.

So you’ve got pagan Mesopotamian iconography reflected in the cherubim, which is an Akkadian term, and you’ve got the idea of an Egyptian palanquin reflected in the ark of the covenant. And God is not only okay with these things, he commanded it that way. How is this possible in light of God’s prohibition against idolatry in Exodus 20?

It’s because the Israelites weren’t bowing down to the cherubim. They weren’t worshiping the ark of the covenant. What we worship is what we set our hearts and minds on. Worship requires intent. And those things weren’t the object of worship for the Israelites. They were the beautiful cultural ornamentation that surrounded the worship of the God of Israel. God took those pagan elements, which were religious symbols in the wider culture in which the Israelites lived, and He pointed them toward Himself. He refashioned them into sacred objects used in the worship of Yahweh.

In the same way, Christians today can safely appropriate the cultural ornamentation of Easter baskets and painted eggs in our observance of the holiday of Easter. Because we aren’t bowing down to these things and worshiping them. By the way, the same is true of trees and wreaths during Christmas. These aren’t objects of worship, they’re cultural decorations.
God can use anything to bring glory to Himself. It’s not about names, or baskets of candy, or bunnies, or other “things,” it’s about our hearts. What we set our hearts and minds on is what we worship. And on Easter, Christians celebrate and worship Jesus.

I’m writing a verse-by-verse Bible study of Galatians for Zondervan, and I’d love your help choosing a title for it. And the new book is going to be pretty unique because it examines Galatians from an apologetic perspective, meaning that it focuses on the theological themes in Paul’s letter that form the foundation of Christian truth claims. And it looks at the ways those themes can be applied today to defend our faith from false theologies. Because in his letter, Paul builds a tremendous case against the false teachers in the church who were leading believers astray. And he cautions his readers against extremes on both ends of the theological spectrum. He warns against lawlessness on the left and legalism on the right. So, I put up a poll where you can vote on a few title ideas, or you can suggest one of your own. There’s a link to it in the description below. So please help me out and cast your vote. Thanks!

Why did God declare some animals clean and others unclean? Some say it has to do with health or nutrition, but the Bible never says that. It does say Israel was given the food laws to set them apart from the other nations. But it doesn’t say why God chose those particular animals. Well, as I talk about it my book What God Has Made Clean, the arbitrary nature of the list actually makes a lot more sense than if they were forbidden for obvious reasons. For example, if certain animals were labeled unclean because they made people ill, then everyone else would avoid them for the same reason, and Israel would be no different. This would just be a list of animals everyone avoided because they caused health problems. What set Israel apart is that they avoided those specific animals for no other reason than God said so. This isn’t a dietary menu logically deduced from nature. Its a list uniquely given by God as a distinguishing marker of His people.
