Introduction to Things Messianic

25 May, 2025 J.K. McKee

In studying the Bible, many Christians unfortunately find themselves only reading the New Testament or the Apostolic Scriptures. Although these important Scriptures speak of the gospel message, testify to the works of our Lord Yeshua (Jesus), and speak of issues that the First Century Believers had to contend with, these writings comprise less than one-third of the Bible. Those whose focus is almost exclusively in this part of the Bible can have an unbalanced approach to our Creator and His plan for the ages.

A Summarization of Passover Traditions

14 April, 2025 J.K. McKee

Certainly, when Believers in Messiah Yeshua sit down to partake of the Passover meal, they are not just remembering the Exodus of the Ancient Israelites and the plagues which God dispensed upon the Egyptians. Each of us sits down to remember great events in the salvation history of the world. The primary event we remember is the slaying of the Passover lamb, God’s mercy toward His people in Egyptian bondage, and how He led them to freedom through the Red Sea. This is a heritage which all those who follow the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob partake of, as the Apostle Paul wrote, “For I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea” (1 Corinthians 10:1, NASU).
