Episode 927: The Battle over Authority | A teaching from the Parsha 'Yitro'

The battle over authority is an enduring struggle embedded within the fabric of human society, characterized by the contestation for power, control, and legitimacy. Throughout history, individuals, groups, and institutions have vied for supremacy, each asserting its claim to govern, lead, or influence. Whether political leaders assert their sovereignty, religious authorities define moral frameworks, or social movements challenge established norms, the quest for authority shapes the dynamics of communities and nations. This battle manifests in various forms, from ideological clashes to institutional power struggles, often marked by conflict, negotiation, and compromise. At its core, the battle over authority reflects the perennial human quest for order, identity, and purpose, driving the evolution of societies and shaping the course of history.• Intro• Exodus 18:13-24 – Seeking the anointed-appointed of Yahweh• Who’s giving the advice?• I want to be in that number• The role of an anointed-appointed leader• They don’t know how to deal with the authority structure• Are you a part of the vision or not?• Exodus 19 – This is the Covenant• Yahweh’s voice are those He chooses to speak for Him• There should be signs to confirm Listen to the Afterburn tomorrowTake advantage of new teachings every week.

Episode 878: The Fruit That Remains

The definition of 'remain' is "continue to exist, especially after other similar or related people or things have ceased to exist." The fruit defined in Galatians 5:22-23 identifies those covenanted with Elohim. As we endeavor to become like Messiah Yeshua, this fruit must remain in us.The fruit produced by the old man's fleshly nature, called "nasty fruit" by Elder Jackson, cannot remain as it has no part in the Kingdom of Messiah and must be dealt with and discarded.Elder William Jackson questions us all: when the time comes, will your fruit remain, and will you hear the words, "well done, good and trustworthy servant?”• John 15:1-4 – The pruning process• John 15:5-8 – Stay connected• John 15:9-15 – Stay in My love: remain obedient• John 15:16 – You were chosen by Messiah to bear fruit• Men are like puppies• What are you choosing over producing?• Ephesians 4:11-13 – Help• The example of human fertilization• Jeremiah 17:7-8 – Blessed is the man who’s trust IS Yahweh• Galatians 5:19-21 – Do not produce this fruit• Galatians 5:22-23 – Do produce this fruit• Ephesians 4:12-13 – To the completeness of MessiahTake advantage of new teachings every week.

Episode 864: Prep Day 2 | Excuses Are For You

Making excuses when one wants to escape a duty or undesirable situation is built into the human condition. Some may call them little “white lies” or whatever.However, when someone begins a Torah-pursuant walk, the excuses must end. There is no place in the Kingdom of Elohim where making excuses is tolerated. To make his point, Elder Jackson takes us on a journey through some examples throughout Scripture and exhorts all Torah-pursuant people to drop the flimsy excuses - to step up and get their jobs done for the Kingdom.• Intro• What is an excuse?• Exodus 12:31-35 – Prep day 1• Exodus 16:1-4 – Our excuses are just drama & negative emotion to others• Genesis 3:12 – Why do we make excuses?• Exodus 32:1-23 – The golden calf and Aaron’s excuse• Luke 14:15-26 – The great banquet and the invitation with no time or date• Psalm 27:1-6 – Two sides of a kingListen to the Afterburn tomorrowTake advantage of new teachings every week.

Episode 859: Stories from the MTOI Community | Part 2

What was your Upper Room and Mt. Sinai experience?Rabbi Steve Berkson gives the floor to a few people to tell their stories of how they came into commitment in the context of Messiah so that you could hear and relate the experience of others with your own. Many of us had the experience of finding the Messiah first before we discovered that the Torah is still relevant. For some of us, it was the other way around. Some of us had no experience with the church, Judaism, Torah, or anything. Yet, being guided to the truth that Messiah Yeshua is the Living Torah, it’s now possible to be a part of the Forever Kingdom.Part 200:00 Mark’s story11:58 Sally’s story25:19 Melissa’s story31:21 Silas’ storyTake advantage of new teachings every week.

Those covenanted with Elohim refer to Friday every week as Preparation Day. Preparing for Shabbat is the goal. The washing of clothes, cleaning the house, cleansing the body, and preparing enough food for eating after sundown on Friday till sunset on Shabbat. Also, preparing the mind and heart for one thing – to spend time, this set-apart time, with our Creator, our Father.Expanding on this concept, Elder William Jackson, Rabbi Berkson’s executive assistant, urges us to be mindful of the return of Messiah Yeshua in the same way and prepare ourselves for this day to which we are all looking forward.• Let’s learn to be Shabbat-centric• Exodus 12:31-39 – Preparation Day defined• Exodus 16:1-28 – Grumbling and playing with stinky stuff• What about preparing internally?• Why do we need to be prepared?• Matthew 25:1-5 – They all slumbered and slept• Matthew 25:6-13 – The Bridegroom came and the door was shut• Matthew 24:14-15 – Why did Yeshua tell the parable of the virgins?• Matthew 24:42-46 – Messiah Yeshua is coming like a thief in the night• This journey should be enjoyable• Some things need to be replacedTake advantage of new teachings every week.

Episode 807: Chanukah | The Festival of Dedication

A Jewish rebellion, called the Maccabean Revolt, c. 167-160 B.C., resulted in an overthrow of the Greek invasion and oppression of the Jewish people as well as Hellenistic compromises of Jewish worship. Jerusalem was recaptured and it was then time to rededicate the Temple in 164 B.C. From this is where the festival of Chanukah (Hanukkah, etc.) comes into being.Focusing on the foundation of the festival, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings illumination to what it means to ‘dedicate’ ourselves since our bodies are referred to as the Temple of Elohim. (1 Corinthians 6:19-20)• What is Chanukah and how does it relate to you?• The definition of ‘devotion’• Areas of dedication• What’s your level of dedication?• What does dedication look like?• The Shema and the Vahavta• Without Him• Very little in life should surprise you• You can do this• Ephesians 4:1-4 – Walk worthy of your calling• 2 Peter 1:1-8 – 8 spiritual attributes and the candles of the Chanukiah• 2 Corinthians 13:5 – Examine and prove yourselfDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 752: Evil | Part 20

People typically don’t engage in normal conversation on the topic of ‘evil’, although maybe a glancing discussion when they see something in a news headline or a movie/TV show that portrays something as they perceive as evil. But, do you know how much ‘evil’ is written about in your Bible? Do you know what the true, scriptural definition of ‘evil’ is? How does this knowledge affect your walk of faith.Rabbi Steve Berkson is one of the small few that would take on the challenge of teaching from scripture about the topic of ‘evil’. You will be amazed and often surprised as Rabbi Berkson dissects the verses from the Bible, one-by-one if necessary, to teach what has been revealed to him and how these revelations will definitely impact your life – both physically and spiritually.Rabbi Berkson decides to start from the beginning, in the book of Genesis, as he has done in other teachings, and continues through the whole bible to provide a comprehensive understanding of this topic. • Isaiah 5:20-21 - Mislabeling• We don’t have to agree on everything?• So smart and clever• 3 John 1:11 - Is it imitating evil to…?• Romans 12:21 - Overcome evil with good• 1 Peter 3:8 - There’s no arguing• What defines ‘righteousness’?• Turn away from evil• Zephaniah 3 - The leadership thought they were righteous• Revelation 2:1-2 - Test and prove those who teach• Psalm 23• Final wordsDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 741: Evil | Part 15

People typically don’t engage in normal conversation on the topic of ‘evil’, although maybe a glancing discussion when they see something in a news headline or a movie/TV show that portrays something as they perceive as evil. But, do you know how much ‘evil’ is written about in your Bible? Do you know what the true, scriptural definition of ‘evil’ is? How does this knowledge affect your walk of faith.Rabbi Steve Berkson is one of the small few that would take on the challenge of teaching from scripture about the topic of ‘evil’. You will be amazed and often surprised as Rabbi Berkson dissects the verses from the Bible, one-by-one if necessary, to teach what has been revealed to him and how these revelations will definitely impact your life – both physically and spiritually.Rabbi Berkson decides to start from the beginning, in the book of Genesis, as he has done in other teachings, and continues through the whole bible to provide a comprehensive understanding of this topic. • 1 Timothy 6:12 – Fight the “good fight”• Elohim, who gives life to all• What to do with the wealth you’ve been blessed with• A water-down mixed message – 1 Timothy 6:19• Watch over what’s entrusted to You• They missed the goal concerning the belief• They have done violence to my Torah – Ezekiel 22:25• Whitewashing and Lying• The Church of Satan looks like…• Am I any of these? – 2 Timothy 3• Bloated with information Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 724: Evil | Part 9

People typically don’t engage in normal conversation on the topic of ‘evil’, although maybe a glancing discussion when they see something in a news headline or a movie/TV show that portrays something as they perceive as evil. But, do you know how much ‘evil’ is written about in your Bible? Do you know what the true, scriptural definition of ‘evil’ is? How does this knowledge affect your walk of faith.Rabbi Steve Berkson is one of the small few that would take on the challenge of teaching from scripture about the topic of ‘evil’. You will be amazed and often surprised as Rabbi Berkson dissects the verses from the Bible, one-by-one if necessary, to teach what has been revealed to him and how these revelations will definitely impact your life – both physically and spiritually.Rabbi Berkson decides to start from the beginning, in the book of Genesis, as he has done in other teachings, to provide a comprehensive understanding of this topic. • Jeremiah 18 - A new vessel• I am devising a plan against you• Isaiah 29 - The potter is greater than the clay• Isaiah 64 - The pottery rebels• Romans 1 - The attributes of Elohim have been clearly seen• They approve of evilDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 706: Evil | Part 3

People typically don’t engage in normal conversation on the topic of ‘evil’, although maybe a glancing discussion when they see something in a news headline or a movie/TV show that portrays something as they perceive as evil. But, do you know how much ‘evil’ is written about in your Bible? Do you know what the true, scriptural definition of ‘evil’ is? How does this knowledge affect your walk of faith.Rabbi Steve Berkson is one of the small few that would take on the challenge of teaching from scripture about the topic of ‘evil’. You will be amazed and often surprised as Rabbi Berkson dissects the verses from the Bible, one-by-one if necessary, to teach what he has discovered and how these discoveries will definitely impact your life – both physically and spiritually.Rabbi Berkson decides to start from the beginning, in the book of Genesis, as he has done in other teachings, to provide a comprehensive understanding of this topic. • 2 Kings 17:6 Israel provoked Elohim and were exiled• 2 Kings 17:11 Believing someone is a mouthpiece for Yahweh• We have to stop playing• Are all Messianic’s the same?• Stiff-necked?• What if you’re wrong?• Elohim works through people• 2 Kings 17:15 Worthless• 2 Kings 17:16 Same thing, only different• Job 1:1 Job “turned aside from evil”• Job was not doing because he was blessed, he was blessed because he was doingDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 701: Love and Torah | Part 59

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.In this final episode Rabbi Steve Berkson moves to the 17th chapter of the Gospel according to John. This is where we we see Messiah Yeshua praying to His Father for those whom He chose and discipled to continue the work that He started.Then moving to Deuteronomy chapter 30, Rabbi Berkson shows us that the plan of Elohim was to exile His people to other nations because of their disobedience, but that they would be regathered and once again do the commandments they were given which included loving their Elohim.In Matthew 24 we see how a lawless generation devolves into love turning cold. Do not be deceived by false prophets who would tell you Torah is not for today or you could fall into the lawless category, thinking you have a relationship with Messiah and the Father, but coming up short at the end. And finally, Rabbi Berkson takes us to Roman 8:28 to show us how Love is connected to Torah-keeping as the verse says, “all things work together for the good…”Rabbi Berkson once again dissects these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 699: Love and Torah | Part 58

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Picking up where we left off in the Gospel of John chapter 15, Rabbi Steve Berkson picks up in verse 16 where he explains how Yeshua has chosen us to be a part of His work here on the earth. Even though at that time He was talking directly to His disciples, giving them instruction before He was about to be killed, His words can apply to us today if we will allow ourselves to be discipled through His Holy Spirit and produce the fruit He expects to see.All of what Rabbi Berkson has unpacked from John 15 is about love for one another in the way the Father expects us to love. We are called and chosen so that we are no longer a part of the world and its ways. As we pull away from the world to follow Messiah and live according to Torah we will experience a disdain from others who do not understand Messiah or why we choose to follow Him.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 697: Love and Torah | Part 57

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Continuing in the book of 1 John, Rabbi Steve Berkson begins this teaching in chapter 5 where John tells us that belief in Messiah Yeshua and all that carries with it does not come from us, but that belief or knowledge and relationship has been birthed in us from above.In verses 2 and 3 Rabbi Berkson points out that, again, love is connected to Torah Observance and that the commandments of Yahweh are not heavy or burdensome.In verse 4 John calls us who believe, overcomers. Having been born of Elohim and given the ability to have a relationship with Messiah Yeshua we overcome the world through that belief. Rabbi Berkson clarifies what overcoming the world looks like – we see things and respond to challenges in our lives differently than the way the world does.Moving on, Rabbi Berkson takes us to the Gospel of John, same writer, different book, to link what we learned from 1 John with what is being conveyed in the gospel writing. Yeshua speaks metaphorically of the relationship we have with Him and the Father by using vines and branches and a gardener who takes care of the whole thing.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 695: Love and Torah | Part 56

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.In the review of the last episode, Rabbi Berkson cautions about deceptive teachers as John also cautioned in 1 John 4:1. This deception is at work today in some faiths in that they are actually a “World System mixed with Truth”. As Rabbi Berkson points out, some people have a tough time hearing the message from the Word of Elohim because it’s not delivered in a way that matches their predetermined ideas of how it should be dispensed. The teachers in this system are also guarded in what they say and how they say it because of being more concerned with offending people than with pleasing Elohim.In 1 John 4:7 Rabbi Berkson begins this teaching by explaining how we are to love each other who are of the same mind in Messiah. He explains the if we can’t love each other, how can we extend any love outside of ourselves and to those whom Elohim would want to have in covenant with Him.In verse 9 the word ‘manifest’ is used and Rabbi Berkson wants to make sure the definition of that word does not get lost in any previous understanding we may have. The word ‘manifest’ means to be revealed to the seeing eye. Messiah is manifested through us as we live through Him, not the other way around, loving others as He would love them.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

He proclaims how wonderful it is that Yahweh is pleased to call us His children. Rabbi Steve goes on to say that because the world does not understand Yahweh, they will not understand us either. But we understand Yahweh because He has chosen to reveal Himself to us by opening our eyes and our ears.

Episode 691: Love and Torah | Part 54

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.From the first nine verses of the book of John, chapter 14, Rabbi Steve Berkson shows us how Messiah Yeshua was the “ultimate expression of discipleship” under His Father. So we should, as followers of Messiah, be as such so that others will see Yeshua represented in us and ultimately see the Father.What did Yeshua do? He walked out the Torah-observant life perfectly. He invites us to do what He did, and He provides help in sending His Spirit.What’s in a name? Yeshua says, “if you ask whatever in My Name…” Does this mean if His Name is invoked, like a magic genie He has to do one’s bidding? Rabbi Steve clarifies what Messiah meant when He told us to use His Name.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 689: Love and Torah | Part 53

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.To refresh our minds and hearts, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings us again to 1 John chapter 1 to expound on the meaning of who Messiah Yeshua is and what He should be to all of us which is life, light, and truth. That through this understanding we should do our utmost to live in the light, having fellowship with Elohim and with each other. This fellowship is achievable only through living in covenant with Elohim in which is only light and no darkness at all.In chapter 2 of 1 John, Rabbi Berkson starts with revealing the number one problem, according to him, in the Body of Messiah today.• How can you know that you know Messiah?• How is the love of Elohim ‘perfected’ in you?• What is a ‘stumbling block’? How does it affect your life and walk?• What is meant by “do not love the World nor that which is in it”?• Are we in the “Last Hour”?• What is an ‘anti-messiah’?• Why did John say, “and you know all…”?• What happens when someone rejects Torah?• How do you know that you are “born of Him”?You can only understand Love and Torah when you can understand how light and darkness can influence and work in your life.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 680: Shuva Yisra’el (Return O’ Israel) | Part 5

Have you maintained a faithful, straight walk in Torah? Or, have you gotten “off the path” a little or a lot? Do you sense a call to return to the path, to Yahweh?As Rabbi Steve Berkson finishes this teaching series, he begins his text in Joel 2:12 where we see Elohim giving His people instruction for how to return to Him. As Rabbi Berkson points out, Yahweh expects those who are returning to Him to be serious about repairing the breach in the relationship.• What is tearing your garments? Why does Elohim want a tearing of the heart instead?• What does Elohim do to get your attention so that you return to the path?In Jeremiah 32:37-42, Yahweh says that as much as He brought evil to His people for their turning away from Him, so He will just as much bring good to those who return.• When Elohim says, “I shall give them one heart…”, is He just going to hand out new hearts to everybody?• Ephesians chapter 2 talks to us about the opportunity given to us to become what?Moving to Isaiah 1:16-20, Rabbi Berkson points out that with a holistic understanding of scripture, it’s not possible to get the message that Elohim just gives us everything. He also points out that the scriptures can also be used by many to make conclusions for erroneous agendas.• What is a ‘holistic’ approach to the Scriptures?• How could someone prove from Scripture that their chicken was the Messiah?• What is evil? How does Yahweh define evil?• When Elohim says, “Come let us reason together…” (Isaiah 1:18), does that mean Yahweh wants your input?Going forward to Isaiah chapter 58, Rabbi Steve clarifies the understanding that to truly be in covenant with our Creator, there are two things that have to work together.• Is this chapter only referring to Yom Kippur?• Doesn’t Elohim always responding to fasting and afflicting ourselves?• What are the two things it takes to please Elohim?• How does Rabbi Berkson interpret ‘speaking your own words’?Verse-by-verse and step-by-step Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us on the journey of discovery as we learn how to covenant with our Creator and Father, which, from time to time requires us to turn around and return (Shuva) to His Word so that we can have a sure entrance into His Kingdom.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Have you maintained a faithful, straight walk in Torah? Or, have you gotten “off the path” a little or a lot? Do you sense a call to return to the path, to Yahweh?Continuing from the last episode, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us from Ezekiel chapter 18 to chapter 33. In the first part of the chapter, Yahweh appoints the prophet Ezekiel to be a “watchman” who would warn the people of that time of the judgment coming upon them. Yahweh also gave clear instructions for how this appointment should be performed, with a warning to the prophet of the consequences should he not perform his duties.• Can anyone take away from this passage that they too are a “watchman”?• What is the danger in claiming to be someone appointed by Yahweh?• How did Rabbi Steve define ‘crookedness’?• What is the difference between your righteousness and Elohim’s righteousness?• What is your part in getting into the Kingdom of Elohim?• What will you be doing in the Millennium?• What is the real test of your pursuing Torah?• When is an apology not an apology?• What is the difference between a ‘won’t and a ‘can’t’?• Are your sins truly forgotten?• What is the one “salvation issue”?Verse-by-verse and step-by-step Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us on the journey of discovery as we learn how to covenant with our Creator and Father, which, from time to time requires us to turn around and return (Shuva) to His Word so that we can have a sure entrance into His Kingdom.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 677: Shuva Yisra’el (Return O’ Israel) | Part 3

Have you maintained a faithful, straight walk in Torah? Or, have you gotten “off the path” a little or a lot? Do you sense a call to return to the path, to Yahweh?After a quick review of the last two episodes, Rabbi Steve Berkson shows us from Jeremiah 33:7-8 how Yahweh promised to, “turn back (Shuva) the captivity of Judah and Israel and build them as at the first.”In this passage, why does Yahweh mention both Judah and Israel?• When was “at the first”? (Exodus 6:6) How can you relate to this concept today?• How can you “return” if you were not born and raised as an Israeli?• What is the first step of ‘returning’?• What is the ‘Egypt’ that is over you today?• What are the two levels of redemption that Messiah Yeshua provided for us?• For what is the Land (of Israel) a metaphor?• What is the 2-step process of “return” promised in Jeremiah 33:8?From there, Rabbi Berkson takes us to Ezekiel chapter 18. In this chapter we see how we individually will be held accountable for our behavior and the importance of “owning” our choices.• Why are the words, “Thus said Yahweh” important?• What is a ‘nephesh’ and how has it been improperly defined?• Is a son held accountable for the father’s unrighteousness, or visa-versa?• Is there such a thing as “generational curses”?• Do you really reap what you sow?• How can I make a new heart and spirit?Verse-by-verse and step-by-step Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us on the journey of discovery as we learn how to covenant with our Creator and Father, which, from time to time requires us to turn around and return (Shuva) to His Word so that we can have a sure entrance into His Kingdom.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Have you maintained a faithful, straight walk in Torah? Or, have you gotten “off the path” a little or a lot? Do you sense a call to return to the path, to Yahweh?Taking us to Jeremiah 29:12 Rabbi Steve Berkson points out Yahweh’s pattern of behavior towards His people. When He needs to correct covenant behavior He starts with small subtle nudges and then uses more severe measures to get our attention. Then at some point if He determines we are not listening or responding, we will be turned loose to “play with the pigs” and hopefully come to ourselves and return to Him and the Covenant.• What’s the first thing one should do when returning to Yahweh?• What is “hedging an apology”?• What is not seeking Yahweh with all your heart?In Isaiah 55:6 two things are mentioned – seeking Yahweh while He can still be found, and calling on Him while He is near.• What causes Him to not be near? What separates and causes distance between you and Him?• Why do we not fully understand and accept His ways?• What are 3 things that will forever be in the Kingdom of Elohim?From there, Rabbi Berkson takes us to Lamentations chapters 3 and 5 where we see the formula for a prayer of repentance.• Have you ever been contrary to the Covenant out of rebellion?• What does this mean, “renew our days as of old”?Then we hop back to Jeremiah 6:8-17 where we see how Torah is much more than just “The Law”, but it is for our instruction. Yahweh wants us to be ‘instructed’ by Him.• How can our ears be “uncircumcised”?• Why does Yahweh want to see us walk out His instructions?• What is “greedy for gain”?Verse-by-verse and step-by-step Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us on the journey of discovery and learning how to covenant with our Creator and Father which from time to time requires us to turn around and return to His Word so that we can have a sure entrance into His Kingdom.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 673: Shuva Yisra’el (Return O’ Israel) | Part 1

Seldom does Rabbi Steve Berkson do a “timing teaching”, but it seems the Ruach put this one in front of him (at the behest of Rabbi Tom) to bring to you today. This teaching series is based on a tradition called “Shabbat Shuva” or the “Shabbat of Return” which by tradition falls between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur (Day of Trumpets and Day of Atonement). The text for this tradition is Hoshea (Hosea) chapter 14 and begins with, “O Yisra’el, return to Yahweh your Elohim…”So, after having gone through the Spring Feasts – Passover, Unleavened Bread, and Shavuot, which are types and shadows of the Hebrew's exodus from Egypt and journey to Mt. Sinai, have you maintained a faithful, straight walk in Torah? Or, have you gotten “off the path” a little or a lot? Do you sense a call to return to the path, to Yahweh?• What is meant by “crookedness”? What does crookedness cause you to do?• Regarding the call to return – return to what?From there, Rabbi Berkson takes us into Leviticus chapter 26 to look at the reasons to return to the Covenant. In Leviticus chapter 26 the blessings and the curses associated with Yahweh’s Covenant with His people are listed.• How is it that you will be able to walk in Covenant with the Creator?From Leviticus, we go to Deuteronomy 4:25 where we can see that Yahweh has an issue with His people and their idol worship. How can we today relate to them in that time regarding ‘idol worship’?Rabbi Berkson then takes us to Deuteronomy chapter 30 to show us one of the final exhortations of Moses to the people as they are about to cross over into the Promised Land. Interestingly, Yahweh through Moses told the people that in their future they would stray from the path they were supposed to walk and be taken from the Land by their enemies, but as they were living in a foreign land, their hearts would turn back to Yahweh and they would return once again to possess and live in their Promised Land.• In this chapter we see the phrase, “circumcise your heart” – what does that mean? Isn't that just a "New Testament" concept? What is it doing left of Matthew?And then we are taken to Romans chapter 10 where Rabbi Berkson points out that the apostle Paul is clearly writing about Torah observance, and indeed substitutes the word ‘Messiah’ for the word ‘Torah’ as he quotes Moses in the section from Deuteronomy chapter 30.• What does Romans 10:4 really mean?• What is “the righteousness of belief”?• What is “the good news of the good”? • Was there “Good News” before the New Testament?Verse-by-verse and step-by-step Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us on the journey of discovery and learning how to covenant with our Creator and Father which from time to time requires us to turn around and return to His Word so that we can have a sure entrance into His Kingdom.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 671: Love and Torah | Part 52

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.In this teaching Rabbi Steve Berkson continues in the second “Great Command” of loving your neighbor or loving each other. He takes up where we left off in James (Ya’akov) chapter 4, then moves into chapter 5, then takes us to 1 John chapter 1.• How do your likes or dislikes affect your relationship with others? What does Rabbi mean by saying we have to “learn each other”?• What does “friendship with world” mean?• What does “subject yourselves to Elohim” mean?• What does “resist the devil” mean?• How do you draw near to Elohim? How does Elohim draw near to you?• When pursuing Torah, who’s feelings are you concerned most about protecting – your friends and family or Elohim?• How would you define ‘sin’?• Do you really understand what the first two verses of 1 John is talking about?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.As he continues in Ephesians chapter 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson untangles the understanding that many have concerning disobedience, sin, covenant and what it looks like to truly love Messiah Yeshua.• What are “empty words”?• What does it mean to be “a partaker with them”?• Who are you to “have no fellowship with”?From there Rabbi Berkson takes us to 1 Timothy chapter 1 and explains how some have missed the goal of the command given by Paul to his disciple from a clean heart, a good conscience and a sincere belief, and have turned aside to senseless talk, some actually teaching that the Torah no longer applies to us today, just that we believe and love Messiah.Then Rabbi Berkson moves us to 2 Peter chapter 1 where we see Peter telling us that we have been given exceedingly great and precious promises by the righteousness of our Elohim and Savior Messiah Yeshua. Rabbi Berkson also points out that belief in Elohim and His Messiah is just the foundation, and that you need to “add” to that foundation with certain things.• What is “Kingdom Access”?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 654: Love and Torah | Part 46

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.After a brief review of what we’ve learned so far, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues in Ephesians chapter 4, clarifying the words of the apostle Paul as he instructed the followers of Messiah Yeshua as to what is expected of them, and us today, to conduct themselves as those who will inherit the reign of Elohim and Messiah.• What does it mean, “having put off the false, and speak truth”? (Eph 4:25)• How can one be “wroth, but do not sin”? (Eph 4:26)• What does it mean to “give place to the devil”? (Eph 4:27)• What would be considered a “corrupt word”? (Eph 4:29)• How could one “grieve the Set-Apart Spirit (Holy Spirit)”? (Eph 4:30)• What is meant by “sealed for the day of redemption”? • What is Elohim-Level forgiveness? (Eph 4:32)• Imitate Elohim–how do I do that? (Eph 5:1)• How does one “walk in love”? (Eph 5:2)• Do you know how to make Elohim happy?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 652: Love and Torah | Part 45

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.“This is the harder part”, as Rabbi Steve Berkson says, the “harder part” being the appropriate interaction with one another fulfilling the second of the two great commands, loving our neighbor as ourselves. In this teaching Rabbi Berkson pinpoints the main reason we struggle with our interaction with each other, which may or may not surprise many of us.Covering the remainder of Ephesians chapter 4, Rabbi Berkson again unpacks the writings of the apostle Paul to his assembly. And just as was Paul’s desire, Rabbi Berkson’s desire is that all those under his stewardship would learn how to do what pleases the Creator and enter into the Kingdom of Elohim.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 648: Love and Torah | Part 43

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Continuing in 1 Corinthians chapter 13, aka “The Love Chapter”, Rabbi Steve Berkson explains how love can take on many forms of behavior such as patience, preferring another above yourself, treating those who abuse and slander you with kindness, etc. “The Love Chapter” says real love does not behave indecently – what is indecent behavior? Can you find a definite description in scripture? Rabbi Berkson explains how this concept is different among various cultures, societies, peoples, etc. This is also where he talks about “Situational Awareness” and why you should practice it in order to demonstrate love toward others.Wrapping up “The Love Chapter”, Rabbi Berkson takes care in going word by word, term by term, verse by verse to ensure that you, even though you may have read this chapter many times, will have an even deeper understanding of what it means to love one another.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Related Teachings can be found here: Developing the Character of Yeshua https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_fefHRSPcUlLPsRSeHwxsb What is Worship? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-_h58GEfh00Hbr_JozebDE INfocus: You’re Still Wrong https://youtu.be/V9SU20AM5B8 INfocus: Emunah https://youtu.be/UxxiMAbTEwA INfocus: Take My Yoke Upon You? https://youtu.be/I7Eqjtf6_LY Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Rabbi Berkson goes deep into verse 3 to show what that means.What is the “measure of belief” that verse 3 mentions?What are the “gifts” that are listed in verses 6-8? Are they “spiritual gifts”?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 640: Love and Torah | Part 39

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.During the weekend of Shavuot Rabbi Steve Berkson brings a prelude to the Love and Torah teaching about what Shavuot means in your life – a dedication of your life to living in the belief of who and what Messiah Yeshua really is and becoming like Him.Then, going to 2 John, Rabbi Berkson breaks down the first few verses as John is writing to a family that he may be discipling. The elder reminds them of the important commandment to walk in love in the way the Father desires us all to walk.In verse 7 John warns about associating with certain people that could derail the faith of this family. Among this warning John uses the term “anti-Messiah”. Rabbi Berkson explains this term in understandable detail.What does it mean to “possess both the Father and the Son”? (2 John 9)From there Rabbi Berkson moves us to Romans 12 and unpacks the intent of the writer as we read about presenting ourselves as a sacrifice and offering, not conforming to the “mindset of” the world and knowing what is the perfect desire and will of the Father.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 637: Love and Torah | Part 37

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.As he begins this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings out the big guns as he challenges you to understand and take action regarding what it is you really struggle with – you.• Why is it you seem to struggle with your relationships and with yourself?Rabbi Berkson takes us into Philippians 2 to unpack what the Apostle Paul wrote to the assembly in Philippi regarding how they should conduct themselves in his absence. Paul exhorts those in that assembly to take on the mind of Messiah Yeshua and in doing so, considering others better than themselves in humility and having an awareness of the other’s needs.• Are you aware that what you may be doing at any given moment may be creating an adverse condition for somebody else?• Are you giving to other’s and the Father the kind of attention that’s necessary for a flourishing relationship?• What is meant by “leadership serving” and “submissive serving”?• What are the differences between unity, uniformity and conforming?• Did Messiah Yeshua or His Apostles ever make the message of the Kingdom “palatable” for their listeners?• We all have our own emotional preferences, but when can those be a bad thing?• Are you the kind of person Yahweh can ‘trust’ with forever?• Is there grumbling, complaining and disputing in the Body of Messiah?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 636: Love and Torah | Part 36

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Starting off in this teaching, Rabbi Berkson clarifies a couple of things, one of which being the authority given to the husband from scripture. It seems that some people misinterpreted what Rabbi said in the last teaching to the point that it could be very troublesome in some marriages. So, Rabbi Steve takes the opportunity to give some “Covenant-Live Coaching” for married couples, those looking to be married soon and those who should not be in an intimate relationship yet, teenagers.Then moving into Ephesians chapter 6, Rabbi Berkson addresses the children and “servants”.Which commandment is for the children and the only one with a promise? Could this commandment have a deeper, more far-reaching interpretation?Paul wrote to the fathers to not “provoke” their children…what does this mean?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Who are the servants to whom Paul refers?Related Teachings can be found here:• Making Decisions…the reason you exist https://youtu.be/9RfUrlBAVWw• Do You Trust Yahweh Enough to Obey Him? https://youtu.be/EZg_97aOK_8Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 630: Love and Torah | Part 33

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Continuing in Ephesians 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson reveals the “two main areas of our existence”. This concept has a lot to do with the meaning of our existence and how we treat each other according to scripture.From verse 13 the word “reprove” or “convicted” is further defined due to popular request.What are the fruits of darkness? (verse 11)What did Paul mean when he wrote, “wake up, you who sleep”? (Verse 14) To whom was he referring? How does one do that? How are you able to know if you’re one of those who need to wake up?How does Elohim expect us to walk before Him? (Verse 15) Rabbi Berkson clarifies what it means to walk “exactly”. To what are we compared if we do or don’t “walk exactly”?Many ask Rabbi Berkson if he would take them “deeper” in their walk. Their definition of “deeper” is somewhat different, so he corrects and redefines what “deeper” really means.Do you know when you actually have a problem or just an undesirable challenge? Rabbi Berkson brings a much needed wisdom into this topic that just might give you some relief.Do you know what the phrase, redeem the time, is referring to?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.In Ephesians 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues teaching us about how to love each other. Stopping at verse 1 he expounds on becoming imitators of Elohim as dear children.In verse 2 we are exhorted to walk in love as Messiah also loved us, giving of ourselves to others as a gift to Elohim. Do you want to send up a “sweet smelling aroma” to Yahweh? Learn to serve others.In verses 3 and 4 we see a list of behaviors that should not even be named among the Body of Messiah. Rabbi Berkson takes some time to clarify one of those behaviors – uncleanness.What do these behaviors have to do with loving each other?In verse 5 there is something that we are expected to know – what is it we should know? Why should we know it?In verse 6 Rabbi Berkson asks why Paul would write about “empty words”. What are they? Why are we cautioned about them? How have some teachers misconstrued the meaning of “empty words”? How do they affect our inheritance in the Kingdom of Elohim?In verses 7 through 10 Rabbi Berkson asks us the question, “Who are you trying to please?”Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Related Teachings can be found here:• Tahor & Tamei: What State Are You In? https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX89J0T8wX07_fOrU1-VhaMO• Making Decisions…the reason you exist https://youtu.be/9RfUrlBAVWw• Understanding the Ruach/Spirit https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_0Mi7M6VeNIqg8eu1f_QBm• Are You Saved? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-XDS4JdFkY0WuOGluQm7_Y• The Millennium & The Kingdom https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX9UNbkpvbCaWQXijbyGCLVK• Do You Know the Father and the Son? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX85eE0WcFyzM6xquyz7r_RC• INfocus: You’re Still Wrong https://youtu.be/V9SU20AM5B8• INfocus: Torah Terrorists https://youtu.be/xcXOVXyRxiY• Darkness & Light https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-XQMZGFW34P2ukzmf_M2q1Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.In Ephesians 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues teaching us about how to love each other. Stopping at verse 1 he expounds on becoming imitators of Elohim as dear children.How does one become an imitator? What things about Elohim should we imitate? What are the two ways to become an imitator?Then, in verse 2 we are exhorted to walk in love as Messiah also loved us, giving of ourselves to others as a gift to Elohim. Rabbi Berkson points out several things that will help you understand and do this. He also points out a couple of glaring problems that are negatively affecting the Body of Messiah today.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Related Teachings can be found here:• What Did Yeshua Do? https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/steveberkson/episodes/2012-05-14T13_57_36-07_00• INfocus: Your Feelings Are All Hanging Out https://youtu.be/R7kI06hK-dY• Developing the Character of Yeshua https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_fefHRSPcUlLPsRSeHwxsb• INfocus: The Needs/Wants Disconnect https://youtu.be/UukKGzYO_IYDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 625: Love and Torah | Part 30

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Continuing our journey of the second of the Two Great Commands, ‘love your neighbor’, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Luke 6:38 where we see Messiah Yeshua continuing to show us the contrast between what Rabbi Berkson calls “the Below” and “the Above”. He points out that in order to please the Father, you must be aligned with “the Above”. A component of loving Yahweh and your neighbor is giving. What does that mean though? Rabbi Berkson clarifies how, when and why as pertaining to giving. He also points out an incentive to give, that whatever we give would be returned pressed down, shaken together and running over. Rabbi Berkson uses his trip to a Baskin-Robbins™ ice cream store to make the point.In Luke 6:39-40 Messiah Yeshua tells a parable of the blind leading the blind. Rabbi Berkson cautions and warns about where and from whom you get your information as you walk in Torah observance. There’s a lot of misinformation out there that presents itself with authority.In verse 41 Yeshua teaches about the plank in your eye and the splinter in your brother’s eye. Rabbi Berkson expounds on how some people take the knowledge about Torah and use it as a weapon to try and “help” others with their walk. “Correction can only happen correctly in the right relationship.”Then in Luke 6:47-49 Rabbi Berkson tells us our lives are like we are building a house. Are we building with the correct foundation or without? The key is whether or not we are listening and doing the words of Messiah.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Related Teachings can be found here:• Forgiveness, Resolution, Reconciliation & Restoration https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX9nrOVGRTQcFf21Y7V1TgUh• What Did Yeshua Do? https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/steveberkson/episodes/2012-05-14T13_57_36-07_00• INfocus: A Whole Lumberyard https://youtu.be/eEzQOoVlMA0• INfocus: The Delusion Bubble https://youtu.be/cEgeS8NIBtM• INfocus: Triggering Your Trauma? https://youtu.be/gCu2-LG_MFI• What Are You Thinking? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_Uwhv4vgG84U04DZRDYO-q• Good Fruit w/William Jackson https://youtu.be/AjHzqlhvi0Y• The Heart of the Matter https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_O_DuSxpxaOIPKqKENGP0s• Follow the Pattern Exactly! https://youtu.be/WRu4jBpdhfg• Are You Covenanted? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_OEhd7K84LBs_jp6579C6UDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 623: Trust the Process | William Jackson

The greatest relationship any of us should invest in is with our trustworthy Creator. He has a plan for our lives that includes a ‘process’. If we trust Him, we will trust the process. The process will cause us to become the people the Creator wants to live with forever.Before we can trust the process we must correctly understand the definition of ‘trust’. We must understand what it means to be ‘trustworthy’, because only those who are considered ‘trustworthy’ will enter the Kingdom of Elohim. Those who are not are cast into outer darkness where there is “weeping and gnashing of teeth”, away from the Creator’s presence.Each of us have been given an ability by which the Creator can test our ‘trustworthiness’. That ability will be revealed to us at the right time, in the right circumstances.Watch and rewatch this teaching as it is vital to your spiritual growth. May you be blessed and instructed as you watch this teaching from Messianic Torah Observant Israel.Scriptures used in this teaching:• Matthew 25:23• Deuteronomy 7:9• Jeremiah 29:11• 1 Corinthians 1:9• 1 Corinthians 10:13• 1 Peter 4:19• Hebrews 10:23• Revelation 1:5• Revelation 19:11Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 618: Stay in Me | William Jackson

Rabbi Steve Berkson would like to introduce Mr. William Jackson to the MTOI family. Among his many abilities and talents Mr. Jackson assists Rabbi Berkson in the administrative tasks, sings in the Praise Team, and is an accomplished speaker and teacher.In the Gospel of John chapter 15 Messiah Yeshua gave His disciples some final instructions before His execution/crucifixion by the occupying Romans, in which He told them emphatically, “Stay in Me”, because they could do nothing of themselves. (John 15:4)What does it mean to “stay in” Messiah? How do we stay connected to Him? Why is it so hard to stay in Him? Why is it so important to stay in Him?To connect the concept of “Stay in Me” Mr. Jackson takes us to Matthew chapter 25 and expounds on the two parables Messiah taught there – the Ten Virgins and their lamps and oil, and the man who gave his servants of his possessions to invest while he was on a trip. Mr. Jackson brings out understanding about these parables that few have heard before.You will be encouraged and strengthened as you listen to this powerful teaching.Scriptures used in this teaching:• John 15:1-7• Matthew 25:1-30Related Teachings can be found here:• Well Done, Good and Trustworthy Servant https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-M88aqIdeb7mT2kxEK2kNz• The Millennium & The Kingdom https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX9UNbkpvbCaWQXijbyGCLVKDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Continuing our journey into the second of the Two Great Commands, ‘love your neighbor’, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Luke 6:20 where he shows us the event called the Sermon on the Mount. Messiah is teaching to His disciples, giving contrasts to life in this world (the below) and life in the heavens (the above).• Do you feel blessed when others are treating you badly because of your faith in Messiah?• Are you able to look ahead to the joy that is coming? Can you practice delayed gratification?• How can it be a bad thing when people speak well of you? What people?• How is it possible to love your enemy as Messiah taught us to? Were you ever an “enemy of Elohim”? Didn’t He love you when you were in that state?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Continuing in John chapter 15 Rabbi Steve Berkson expounds on the ‘Love/Hate’ aspects of our walk.Rabbi Berkson turns our attention to verse 18 as Messiah out of love tells His disciples and us that if He was hated and rejected by the world, so would they/we would be hated and rejected by the world.Why would “the world” hate you? What or who is “the world”? What does the movie, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, have to do with us and “the world”?Then, moving into John chapter 14, Rabbi Berkson clarifies what Yeshua was talking about when He said, “I go to prepare a place for you…” You should be very excited when you hear what Rabbi Berkson has to say about that.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 604: Love and Torah | Part 23

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Beginning this teaching in John 15:5, Rabbi Steve Berkson explains what Messiah Yeshua meant when He was exhorting His disciples to “stay in Me and He in them”, and how that statement could also be said as, “if you are in covenant with Me.” Without the Spirit of Messiah (His intrinsic nature) in us it is impossible to be in covenant with Him and His Father.• What is Covenantal Fruit?Moving on from there Rabbi Berkson expounds on something crucial to our having a correct mindset when dealing with those around us and it centers around the phrase “he is broken off and thrown away.” This moves him into passages in Matthew chapter 13 and Romans 11 which were not in his notes.• What is the job for the Kingdom that is above all of our ‘pay grades’?• Is your being considered a “darnel” or a “tare” predestined?• Do you have a preconception of what leadership should look like or sound like? What’s the danger in that?Rabbi Berkson does a “reset” of a ‘faith idea’ that most of us have been taught throughout our lives, namely the idea of “ask whatever you wish and it shall be done for you.” What is the awful word that precedes Messiah’s statement about ‘asking’?Toward the end of the teaching, what started as a side note became an illustrious life-coaching moment as Rabbi Berkson was speaking about be unequally yoked and then turned his focus to those who are single and looking for a mate. A must-watch!Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 602: Love and Torah | Part 22

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.There’s a lot of discussion out there between the different groups who claim to believe in the Creator and His Messiah, but have completely different perspectives from their belief. Almost all of the groups believe it is all about love, so the question becomes what does that look like? What is the action to be taken? In this teaching series, Love & Torah, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings clarity from the Scripture the answer to that question.Now that we’ve finished going through Psalm 119 where the focus is on the concept of loving Elohim, Rabbi Berkson now starts explaining the concept of loving each other. The Gospel of John chapter 15 provides a great place begin this journey as we see Messiah Yeshua is teaching His disciples using some agricultural metaphors to get His message into their hearts about the relationship He expects.• What is the “gap” between the Gardener and the Vine?• What is pruning? How does it apply to you?• If Messiah Yeshua referred to Himself as the “True Vine”, could there be false vines?• Why did Messiah Yeshua say, “Stay in Me…”?• Why is the verse (15:3) about being clean because of the Word in there?• What is a direct-download from the Ruach?• Do you need to pray before doing anything?• What is “Vertical Awareness”?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Continuing in Psalm 119 beginning in verse 159 Rabbi Steve Berkson exposes a ‘truth’ in what King David has been writing over and over pleading with Elohim that He would “revive” him because he “loves” the commandments of Elohim. Do you need to be revived? Romans 10:4 says in some translations that “Messiah is the end of the Law for righteousness…”, but does this mean the termination of the Law? Or does the word we read as “end” have a different meaning?Does forever really mean forever? Rabbi Berkson has a problem with the idea of forever as he explains…There are things that happen in your everyday life to prove the Brit Hadasha (New Testament) is true. Do you know what they are?As you take the steps to become like Messiah Yeshua, what is the strongest influence in your life?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 598: Love and Torah | Part 20

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.This teaching continues in Psalm 119, verse 150 where Rabbi Steve Berkson expounds on “Those who pursue mischief…” as those who have a different agenda than Yahweh, and are far from His Torah. These are those who lack an intimate relationship with The Creator. These draw near with their lips, but their heart is far from Him. They do what is right in their own eyes.Is there a difference between ‘mercy’ and ‘grace/favor’? Rabbi Berkson touches on this topic so that there’s a clear understanding.King David the psalmist wrote about those who “have not sought Your Laws.”, and called them “the wrong ones”. Do you seek His Laws?Lashon Hara is Hebrew for ‘evil tongue’. Many people are familiar with this term, but are confused as to what it actually means. Rabbi Berkson unpacks the meaning of this term and how it can affect your life and the life of those around you.This teaching contains some of the best life-coaching to be found as Rabbi Berkson wonderfully delves into the intricate world of human relationships – dating, marriage and raising children. He points out relationship attributes such as ‘default expectancy’ and ‘understood expectancy’. Do you know what these attributes are and how they may affect you?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Episode 597: Love and Torah | Part 19

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Focusing on how our hearts and minds should be towards our Creator and His Torah, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues in our journey through the writings of King David in Psalm 119. Rabbi Berkson picks up at verse 145 pointing out how throughout this psalm King David has made the connection between petitioning The Almighty, and expressing why He should grant it and why the petitioner wants it. As Rabbi Berkson questions that as all of us have called out to The Almighty, “Answer me” – can we say with honesty and integrity, “I observe Your laws”?The Almighty created you to, at first, receive from Him. Then, as we have believed in His Son, Messiah Yeshua, and walk the path of righteousness, we become a ‘new creature’ that rises from the “Below”, the elementary things of this earth, to the “Above”, the things of Heaven. This ‘new creature’ learns to become a ‘giver’ as is The Almighty.What does both Jews and Christians agree on?What is it that Yahweh wants from you?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Moving forward in Psalm 119, Rabbi Steve Berkson has a few questions for us;When you see people not guarding the Torah, what is your reaction?

(Psalm 119:138)How has Christianity confused us regarding “salvation”?Why did Elohim allow all that horrible stuff to happen to Job?Why do you want eternal life? Are you trustworthy with it?

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.As we continue to look at King David, the man after Yahweh’s own heart, and his writings starting in Psalm 119:126, Rabbi Steve Berkson teaches us verse by verse to understand the emotions and thoughts King David experienced to cause him to write them down. As we understand, we can apply these emotions and thoughts to our lives. After all, it’s through our experiences that Yahweh ‘makes us to understand.’Every organization, corporation, state, country, etc. has a vertical structure with someone or something at the top and those under who are subject to the level above and responsible for those who are under. The Kingdom of Messiah has the same kind of vertical structure. This is necessary for the smooth and functional operation of the forward movement of the Kingdom. This vertical Kingdom structure is in place right now and everyone within the structure should know and understand their function.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah - Part 15

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.This episode from the beginning of Sukkot starts with Rabbi Steve Berkson taking us to the passage in the Gospel of John, chapter 7, where we see Yeshua Messiah standing up at the day called Shemini Atzerat which finishes the feast, declaring Himself to be the Waters of Life. Rabbi Berkson points out that Messiah said “Anyone who thirsts…” – but does everyone get to drink?From there Rabbi Berkson takes us to John 4:5-15, the story of the woman at the well, where Messiah Yeshua offered Living Water to her and also declared to her, one of only two people, that He was the Messiah. Rabbi Berkson points out the time of day this happened from which he brings a “deeper understanding” as to what the time of day had to do with the story which was the sixth hour of the day. What could be the “hour of man”?From there we go back to Psalm 119, but before he gets into that Rabbi Berkson gives instruction and encouragement in regards to studying the Word. It matters not how you do it – just do it, the way you do it.Then going into Psalm 119 starting in verse 114, Rabbi Berkson reminds us the purpose of taking this psalm verse-by-verse is that you would place yourself in the shoes of King David. You should feel what he felt through the words he wrote. Then you should apply the same love for Torah and place the same value and importance to your walk as he did.Who are the “evil-doers”? How does the Scripture define evil? Rabbi Berkson shows us plainly. Who or what are the “witnesses”? Rabbi Berkson expounds how these impact our lives.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Related Teachings can be found here:• Understanding the Ruach/Spirit https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_0Mi7M6VeNIqg8eu1f_QBm• INfocus: Emunah https://youtu.be/UxxiMAbTEwA• Let Me Not Be Ashamed https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/steveberkson/episodes/2012-08-25T17_59_32-07_00• INfocus: Put the Mic Down! https://youtu.be/QTH6Vc2ssqQ• INfocus: Messi-Mutt https://youtu.be/pL4EeaQbOKk• INfocus: Do Not Be Called Rabbi https://youtu.be/pL4EeaQbOKk• INfocus: Whac-a-Mole https://youtu.be/uhd-FAhQ8Kg• INfocus: That’s Not Submission https://youtu.be/a73Wn6jCz_E• Are You Listening? https://youtu.be/eLpI3SFHSF4Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Rabbi Steve Berkson lists the reasons for giving your love and life to the Torah of Yahweh.Why would King David say that he’s smarter than his teachers? What teachers?Did King David have a problem with arrogance? Do you?What does it mean to “restrain my feet”? Doesn’t Satan cause me to do wrong? How do you picture Satan, the devil? Would you recognize that creature if it were before you?How does our Creator define evil? How do humans define evil? Do the definitions match?In what way will living in the Millennium be harder for some?

Love and Torah - Part 9

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.In this episode, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to the book of Psalms starting in Psalm 11. He points out the contrast between two types of people – those who are called “the wrong”, and “the upright”. Yahweh loves those who pursue righteousness, doing what He has determined is right, and He hates those who know to do right, but don’t.Then moving to Psalm 33, Rabbi Berkson shows us how Yahweh, because of His great love, created everything by the word of His mouth, His Torah. If that was not enough, He takes from His creation a group of humans and calls them His inheritance – those who love Him enough to walk in all of His ways.From there Rabbi Berkson leads us into the 119th Psalm that was written by the man who was called the man after Yah’s own heart. You can see this by the way King David wrote about the Torah of Yah and how he loved it and Him.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands”, love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Taking us to Deuteronomy chapter 7 Rabbi Steve Berkson establishes some context in how Love and Torah are connected. He brings out for our understanding how Elohim has established a relationship of love that is based on an “if/then” – if we do what He wants, to fear Him and guard His commandments, then He gives us what He has promised.What are the three things Torah does for us? What is the plea of Yahweh and where do we find it?Who’s influencing you more, Yahweh or family, friends, etc.? From that question Rabbi Berkson goes into an in-depth life-coaching session that includes handling situations with others that may more influence on you than they should.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Why or why not?Beginning this episode in Deuteronomy 10:12-13, Rabbi Steve Berkson presents what it is that Yahweh is expecting of all who choose to walk in covenant with Him.Then going backward a couple of books Rabbi Berkson makes an in-depth dissertation of the Ten Commandments from Exodus chapter 20.From there, back again into Deuteronomy, in chapter 6 where we find the Shema and the Vahavta, as Rabbi Berkson expounds on the foundation of covenant living with our Creator.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah - Part 5

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it?The reason we exist is to become more like our big brother, Messiah Yeshua. Living our lives according to the two great commandments, love your Elohim and love each other.Continuing in 1 John chapter 3, Rabbi Berkson starts in verse 11 and gives the example of Cain and how he could not control his own emotions which ended up in murdering his own brother Abel. We who are “in Covenant” are expected to treat our fellows also in Covenant with much humility and love, with self-control which is a fruit of the Spirit. Those that do not love their brother does not have everlasting life in them.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in this passage so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Torah, or “the Law” – what’s love got to do with it? Rabbi Steve Berkson begins this teaching series with that song reference in order to make a point that he is determined to reveal how the giving of the Torah by our Creator and our guarding and obedience to it absolutely is connected to love. In the past, we’ve probably understood love in a certain way, but in this teaching Rabbi Berkson explores the different facets of love as spoken of in our scriptures.How does the English translation of the Bible do us a disservice in using the word ‘love’?How can we understand what is said in the New Testament?Going first to Matthew chapter 22, Rabbi Berkson show us how Yeshua brought out the two main relationships, us and the Creator and us with each other, and then connects the present to the past with the two great commands.Those who teach that the Law/Torah is done away with lack something that would allow them to carry out the two great commands – what is it?This teaching series will be packed full of vital information that will help you in your spiritual growth as you walk toward the Kingdom of Elohim, becoming the kind of person that He wants to live with forever.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Peace in a World Not His - Part 12

In Proverbs chapter 3 King Solomon is writing to his children to “bind his Torah around their neck.” What does it mean to bind something around your neck? How do you “write” something on your heart? It seems that Solomon is instructing us to do things, but hasn’t it “all been done for us”? What are the three things Torah does for us? Rabbi Steve Berkson begins this final episode of this series by expounding on what pursuing the Torah of Yahweh can do to bring peace into your life.Then moving into Jeremiah chapter 23 Rabbi Berkson ties it to Proverbs chapter 3 and on the responsibility of being a proper anointed/appointed teacher of the scriptures. How did the teachers of Jeremiah’s day scatter the people? For what were they being reprimanded and punished? Is there a Messianic reference in this chapter? How is Yahweh going to fix the problem of inadequate and problematic teachers? Moving on from Jeremiah to Luke chapter 8 we see the event where Yeshua, leaving His disciples in charge of getting them to the other side, took a nap. Then a great storm came upon them to where the disciples cried out, “Master, we are perishing!” Rabbi Berkson points out a great deal of insight from the telling of this event in the Gospel of Luke that can be applied to our life today.In Colossians chapter 3 Rabbi Berkson teaches “the Above”, the world that is Yahweh’s and “the Below”, the world that is not His, and gives good instruction in saying if you are of “the Above”, raised with Messiah Yeshua, then, you should diminish your passion for or any connection with “the Below”.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Peace in a World Not His - Part 11

Dealing with the idea of “Waiting, Seeking, and Being strong”, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Isaiah chapter 51 in order to get a glimpse of what “His world” will look like. For one thing, “His world” is going to have in it those who “pursue righteousness”. (vs 1) For another thing, “His world” will be filled with the Light of His Torah. (vs 4) In order for us to make it into “His world” we must have an expectancy, a hope of all that Yah has promised to those who are His.Then moving into the Psalms Rabbi Berkson shows us the one verse that could solve all of our problems with fear and anxiety.From the Psalms we go to Jeremiah chapter 30 and learn a little about the two houses, Judah and Israel, and that the doctrine of Replacement Theology has no standing in scripture.Guard. Walk. Do. Sounds like covenant again, right? Rabbi Berkson takes us to Leviticus chapter 26 and shows us by the words of the Creator the promise of peace that will be in His world.Then on to the prophet Micah chapter 4 as Yahweh says His mountain will be above all mountains and His house will be there from where the Torah will go out to judge and teach all. In this section Rabbi Berkson has a very different thought on verse 5 that you have probably never heard before.Welcome to another life-changing teaching series from Rabbi Steve Berkson and MTOI.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

We all are born with our own desires and passions, but are they right and good for us? What about Yah’s desires and passions? Is it possible for our’s to meld with His?Continuing in Romans chapter 8, Rabbi Steve Berkson shows us more of what the apostle Paul wrote about the nature of man versus the nature of Elohim. What is the nature or character traits of Elohim? Rabbi Berkson quickly moves us to Galatians 5:22-23 to reveal the answer.In Galatians chapter 5 Rabbi Berkson points out the comparison of the fruit of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit of Elohim. How does this fruit of Elohim show itself in our lives? What is the consequence of it not showing up in our lives?In James chapter 3 Rabbi Berkson helps us to understand how the tongue can either steal peace or bring peace.Welcome to another life-changing teaching series from Rabbi Steve Berkson and MTOI.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Peace in a World Not His - Part 9

Does “all” always mean “all”? What is the default reaction to being afraid of something? What intimidates you?Beginning this teaching in Numbers/Bemidbar chapter 14, Rabbi Steve Berkson explains some of the aspects of human behavior when confronted with the unknown or the perception of something terrifying. This is the event of the leaders of Israel going in and spying out the promised land and then the slanderous report brought back by ten of those leaders.From there Rabbi Berkson goes to Romans chapter 8 to help us understand the meaning of the difference between the Spirit and flesh, and the law of sin and death.

Peace in a World Not His - Part 8

In this teaching Rabbi Steve Berkson starts in Deuteronomy 20 to look at how being afraid and having peace do not go together. How do we today “do battle” with others? What’s the “fear factor” in those situations? When the situation feels overwhelming, what do you do? How does leadership fit into the picture?Then moving into Numbers chapters 13 and 14 Rabbi Berkson shows us how fear is contagious and that there was a failure of leadership when Israel went to spy out the promised land. Why did they have to “spy out” the land?Are you afraid of change? Rabbi Berkson gets into a bit of life-coaching about jobs or careers and how the fear of change can seep into your walking with Yah.From there, Rabbi Berkson moves into the issue of “evil speaking”, in the Hebrew “Lashon hara”, literally, “evil tongue”. He relates from the perspective of his organization MTOI and the things that people have said against him and MTOI. He shares some behind-the-scenes details of what others have said with the intention of influencing others in a negative way. Is there another ministry that would be this transparent?Welcome to another life-changing teaching series from Rabbi Steve Berkson and MTOI.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Peace in a World Not His - Part 7

What are you afraid of? Is being afraid wreaking havoc with your peace? As he takes us to Exodus 14:1-15, Rabbi Steve Berkson breaks down the story of the Israelites leaving Egypt defiantly, but when they come to the water’s edge they become afraid. The water is in front of them, mountains are on each side and Pharaoh with his army is behind them trapping them. Moses then says, “Do not be afraid.”What can you do when you feel overwhelmed by the things that life will throw at you? Rabbi Berkson breaks down Deuteronomy 7:17-23 to help you understand that your being overwhelmed is an opportunity to exercise your belief/emunah in Him and experience deliverance and peace.Then moving on from there, Rabbi Berkson takes us to Deuteronomy 18:13-22 where we see instruction being given to Israel for dealing with leadership, namely prophets. The first thing this passage instructs is to ‘have integrity’. Respect the anointed/appointed leadership that you have placed yourself under. But when someone presents themselves as a “prophet” and then shows that he/she is not a prophet, you are not to be afraid of them.Welcome to another life-changing teaching series from Rabbi Steve Berkson and MTOI.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Peace in a World Not His - Part 6

Of what importance to you is the title that someone has? Do some claim authority on their own and title themselves? If it is your responsibility to find a teacher/mentor, how do you do that? What’s the process of vetting someone to be that to you?How does ‘worry’ relate to Yahweh’s vertical authority structure?What does it mean to “be sober and watch”?Wrapping up the topic of ‘worry’, Rabbi Steve Berkson reveals the answers to the above questions by taking us to 1 Peter chapter 5.The next enemy of peace is ‘doubt’ and Rabbi Berkson breaks down the event in Matthew 14:22 – Yeshua walking on the water. What happens to peace in a state of being ‘double-minded’?Then, going all the way back to the beginning, Rabbi Berkson has us look at Genesis chapter 3 where we see the event of Adam and Eve, the “snake” and the forbidden fruit and how that event thrust all of mankind into a “World Not His.”Welcome to another life-changing teaching series from Rabbi Steve Berkson and MTOI.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Peace in a World Not His - Part 5

What is the source of our peace? Messiah Yeshua said, “My peace I leave with you, not as the world gives I leave with you.” If He is the word (John 1:14) then it’s the Word of Elohim that brings peace to us. What can cause the Word to not take root in the soil of our lives and block the peace that it could bring?Starting this teaching in Matthew 13:18, Rabbi Steve Berkson breaks down Yeshua’s parable of the Sower and the Seed to show something about worry that may have slipped by many of us.From there Rabbi Berkson goes to Philippians 4:4-9, a well-known verse and a favorite of many, to elaborate on some encouragement from the apostle Paul to his students and assembly as he says, “Do not worry at all.” Then he gives a process for how that is possible.Welcome to another life-changing teaching series from Rabbi Steve Berkson and MTOI.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Peace in a World Not His - Part 4

“Our peace comes from our expectation of the future, our understanding of the past and our embracing of what He has given us today.” What could bring any more peace to our hearts and minds than knowing how all this is ultimately going to end? Not just end, but transition to a new beginning.Meanwhile, the prayer of Messiah Yeshua is that we are not taken out of the world, but that we are kept from the wicked. This life in this world is only a test and we need to go through the tests for a reason–to show if it is in our hearts to fear Him and keep His commandments, thus yielding the “peaceable fruit.”In this teaching Rabbi Steve Berkson wants to begin talking about the emotional challenges facing us, first up, Worry.How is Worry like a virus? What is a good way to avoid Worry? What benefit does Worry have?Taking us to Matthew 6:24-34, Rabbi Berkson goes verse-by-verse through the words of Yeshua as He was exhorting His audience at that time to stop worrying and place themselves under the reign of Elohim, observe His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to them.Welcome to another life-changing teaching series from Rabbi Steve Berkson and MTOI.Related Teachings can be found here:• The Fear of Yahweh https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX8t0FwtfuLzlCSJdSrRlzXU• What Are You Thinking? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_Uwhv4vgG84U04DZRDYO-q• Are You Saved? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-XDS4JdFkY0WuOGluQm7_Y• The Search for the Doctrine of Grace https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX91R_Lz3jOfHHCxJV6XebkV• Endure and Receive the Crown of Life https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX8XUQYclJ4pJpVyjj9jIQ2x• INfocus: The Needs/Wants Disconnect https://youtu.be/UukKGzYO_IYDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

What happens to one if one doesn’t produce what is expected?Who is the “gardener”? What is pruning, as applied to growing plants? How is it applied to humans in a spiritual sense?Do we, today, need to understand the concept of clean and unclean? (John 15:3)Why would someone tell another to stay unless the other could leave? (John 15:4)How is love for Yeshua and the Father connected to obedience? Did the Son’s teaching do away with the Father’s instruction?What does it look like to be anointed and appointed?How does the Father look at the way you treat His leadership?

Afterburn: Thoughts, Q&A on Peace in a World Not His - Part 1

AFTERBURN:Some of the topics covered are:• Being a copy of an imperfect copy – Discipleship…• Does the word ‘greater’ in John 14:28 simply mean ‘older’?• Would a notable increase in peace be an indicator of us being in right-relationship with the Father?• Who is the “ruler of this world” in John 14:30?• Am I cold-hearted?• How can people who suffer with extreme physical pain on a daily basis have peace/shalom?• Can someone with PTSD or Bipolar disorder achieve the level of peace that the scriptures talk about?• To what extent should we prepare for a disaster like the Corona virus (COVID-19), or should we just live as usual with shalom/peace?… and much more!Afterburn: also known in the world of fitness as the “afterburn effect”, simply put; The more intense the exercise, the more oxygen your body consumes afterward. The same could be true as you build up your spiritual self.

Peace in a World Not His - Part 1

If you walk out Torah on some level, but still are afraid, if you panic or have anxiety, if you still worry or are depressed (not clinically), there’s something missing in your walk…what is it? Rabbi Steve Berkson brings into the spotlight how throughout our Bible we are encouraged to have peace. But how? Why do some of us find ourselves lacking peace?In John 14:27 Yeshua makes a statement of encouragement in where He’s says, “My peace I give you…” and “I do not give to you as the world gives.” How does He give His peace and how do we receive His peace? What does it mean to “stay in Me”?The phrase “peace from Elohim”, “peace from the Father”, or “peace in Messiah Yeshua”, shows up nineteen times in the Brit Hadasha. Rabbi Berkson wants to address the questions, how do we get it, what prevents us from having it, what disturbs it, and how do we lose our peace? Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Forgiveness, Resolution, Reconciliation & Restoration - Part Four

“What has been resolved has to be released.” In this the final episode of Forgiveness, Resolution, Reconciliation & Restoration, Rabbi Steve Berkson gives a more detailed review of everything that’s been taught up to this point. He then moves into consequences incurred and consequences removed.What’s the beauty of our relationship with our Creator? Rabbi Berkson takes us to 2 Chronicles 7:13-14 to find out. There we find the very well-known verse that starts with, “If my people who are called by my name…” In this passage we see all the processes of forgiveness, resolution, reconciliation and restoration.Does forgiveness necessarily remove consequences? What is it that the Creator is wanting from us as He forgives us? Who does he do all this for?Why should you be Torah-Observant? Because the path, the instructions for coming into right relationship with your Creator was given to Moshe (Moses), as the psalmist King David wrote in Psalm 103. If you have the proper fear or respect of Yah and His awesomeness, you will be given the desire to want a right relationship, aka, The Covenant, with Him. (see Deuteronomy 10:12-13)What does it mean to “pass over the transgression”? What is the Father’s approach to forgiveness that we should have? (Micah 7:18)In Jeremiah 31:31, with whom is the “new covenant” made? Has He rejected one group to accept another group? Has this prophecy already happened?When you accept and act on the forgiveness provided you through what Messiah Yeshua did, does this absolve you of sin past, present and future? Why? Why not?Finishing this teaching in the letter to the Colossians, Rabbi Berkson points out words such as expectation, worthy, fit… what do these crucial words have to do with the reward promised to us? Along with those words there are other words such as fruitful, empowered, delivered, redemption. Don’t miss this final episode of this series that will forever change your life.Related Teachings can be found here:• Darkness & Light https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-XQMZGFW34P2ukzmf_M2q1 • The Fear of Yahweh https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX8t0FwtfuLzlCSJdSrRlzXU• Are You Covenanted? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_OEhd7K84LBs_jp6579C6U• Where Are We Going? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAU_Vza3TY4&list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-ASeY8Xo7Pt8WK1PUy7b0P&index=2• The Search for the Doctrine of Grace https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX91R_Lz3jOfHHCxJV6XebkVDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Forgiveness, Resolution, Reconciliation & Restoration - Part Three

In this teaching Rabbi Steve Berkson focuses on what comes after forgiveness, which is what we are all seeking for when we get down on our knees before the Father after we’ve trespassed against Him. As he takes us to the first of the passages in this teaching, Luke 23:33, we see Messiah Yeshua as He is being crucified by the hands of the Romans crying out to His Father to forgive them…they don’t understand what they are doing. Can you do the same under much less circumstances?Can your unforgiveness cause someone to stumble? Rabbi Berkson takes us to Luke 17 to find out. Is the definition of the word ‘forgive’ in this passage clear? Could you actually forgive someone who comes to you and repents seven times in one day?How does faith (emunah) work together with forgiveness? Rabbi Berkson shows us how from the event in Matthew chapter nine.Then, in Acts 5:30 Rabbi Berkson points out through what the apostle Peter said, how the forgiveness and repentance given by Yah takes away the consequence for sin.In 2 Corinthians 5:16 Rabbi Berkson explains the apostle Paul’s thought of how we should now look on forgiveness from a covenantal perspective. How much value the Father places upon you that He would send envoys to you, to plead with you, in the effort to reconcile with you and to restore you to favor.Don’t miss this series of teachings on a subject that is so vital, yet so misunderstood.Related Teachings can be found here:• Repentance https://youtu.be/SFXaoqjCjO4Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Forgiveness, Resolution, Reconciliation & Restoration - Part Two

How important is forgiveness? Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Matthew chapter six where he shows us the “model prayer” given by Yeshua when His disciples asked how they should pray.In the prayer, which is just an outline for how to pray, Yeshua hits the issue of forgiveness, from the vertical, the Father, and also on the horizontal, between ourselves. Are you willing to do for your brother or sister what you expect the Father to do for you? As He does, so should you. If you don’t, He won’t.What is the “negative emotional state”?Then Rabbi Berkson takes us to Matthew 18:21-22 to look at a parable Yeshua told to give an example of what it looks like to be forgiven and to forgive. First, Peter poses the question about how many times should someone forgive another. Yeshua’s response was a multiplication equation. What was the equation? What was the answer? Was the answer meant to actually be how many times we should forgive our brother/sister?Before the master in the parable forgave the debt of his servant, what happened first?What is it that Rabbi Berkson says we should never forget? How does it affect the way we treat others? (Deuteronomy 24:18)How can haSatan use your unforgiving attitude?What are the two things forgiveness does to thwart the adversary interfering in your life?Do you really understand what it means to “grieve the set-apart (holy) spirit of Elohim? (Ephesians 4:30) Rabbi Berkson makes the understanding so simple. Don’t miss it.What about being “sealed by the set-apart spirit of Elohim”? Are you clear about that?Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 15

As he begins the text for this teaching in 1 John 1:1, Rabbi Steve Berkson points out that the apostle John confirms all the scriptures that refer to Messiah Yeshua as the Word, and from the mouth of Yeshua as He refers to Himself as the Life, when he says he has looked upon and handled the Word of Life–he was there as the Messiah walked on this earth.As Rabbi Berkson points out, the apostle John emphasizes in the first part of his letter the vertical and horizontal relationships–with our Father and with each other. Note also how much he uses the light and darkness references–walking in the light means guarding His commands, or doing the truth.• What did Rabbi Steve mean when he talked about how Yeshua “took the bullet for us.”• How do we know that we know Him? (1 John 2:3)• Who was the “perfect disciple”? Hint: it wasn’t one of the twelve.• What is it that demonstrates our being one with Yeshua and the Father?• Can one say something that is a lie, but not be a liar?Once again, at the end of this series, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover even more dimensions of Darkness and Light.Related Teachings can be found here:• Are You Covenanted? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_OEhd7K84LBs_jp6579C6U• Repentance https://youtu.be/SFXaoqjCjO4• The Heart of the Matter https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_O_DuSxpxaOIPKqKENGP0s• Do You Know the Father and the Son? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX85eE0WcFyzM6xquyz7r_RC• Honor & Shame https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-lexk1G6zrYxLqCMZv4Wzf• Understanding the Ruach/Spirit https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_0Mi7M6VeNIqg8eu1f_QBm• INfocus: The Delusion Bubble https://youtu.be/cEgeS8NIBtM• The Millennium & the Kingdom https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX9UNbkpvbCaWQXijbyGCLVK• The Armor of Elohim https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX8dWvXnu5lScQDt1YW2soUBDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 14

“One thing that is vital, but missing in a lot of the teachings that you’ve learned from all of your life, is the strength of context.” –Rabbi Steve BerksonThe topic of this episode of Darkness & Light is, “being called out of darkness, into His marvelous light.” (1 Peter 2:9), one of the few real status changes–coming into Light beyond human comprehension. • How does one come out of darkness? How does one know if he/she is in the light?Beginning his text in 1 Peter 1:2, Rabbi Berkson stops to point out to whom the writer was addressing this letter, “those who are…set-apart (Holy) by the Spirit unto obedience…” Obedient to what? • If the Torah became no longer relevant at the time Yeshua Messiah was killed on a cross, as certain majority faith groups teach, then what is to be obeyed?Once again, redefining our lexicon, terms and words, Rabbi Berkson makes us look at the term ‘born again’ as the writer uses it to describe those who are walking toward the Kingdom with a “living expectation.”• What is Peter talking about when he uses the term ‘born again’? (1 Peter 1:3) Does he mean it in the same way as Yeshua did in His conversation with Nicodemus? (John 3)• What is the “living expectation”? (1 Peter 1:3)• What is the “inheritance incorruptible”? (1 Peter 1:4)• What is the condition that applies to the “protection of Elohim”? (1 Peter 1:5)• If I am living as a set-apart one, why am I “grieved by manifold trials”? (1 Peter 1:6-7)• Why would you receive praise, respect and honor from Messiah Yeshua? (1 Peter 1:7)• What if this life is all there is?You need to hear Rabbi Berkson as he uses his Gym Membership as an analogy to illustrate real belief.• Did he really say, salvation is nothing?• How does one set themselves apart in their behavior?Once again, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover even more dimensions of Darkness and Light.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 13

How does your behavior relate to Darkness and Light? This is the theme as Rabbi Steve Berkson takes you into 1 Peter chapter two, the letter from Peter to the “Strangers of the Dispersion.”• Who are these “Strangers of the Dispersion”? (1 Peter 1:1-2)• What did the apostle mean when he called them, “set apart by the Spirit unto obedience”, and “newborn babes”?• What is the “unadulterated milk of the Word by which we grow”? Does this imply that there is also “adulterated” milk of the Word that can stunt your growth?• What does it look like to become “as a newborn babe”?In 1 Peter 2:9-10, is the writer saying that we have already become these things? Rabbi Berkson clarifies this passage, because sadly, some readers could, and do, interpret it incorrectly.• Do you really, fully care what is acceptable to the Creator? (1 Peter 2:5)• How do the Gentiles come into the Covenant, into Light?Once again, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover even more dimensions of Darkness and Light.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 12

• Is there anything bad or wrong about eschatology or being concerned about the end time?• What does the concern about the end time have to do with darkness and light?As we read what the apostle Shaul, or Paul, wrote to the congregation of Messianic believers in his letter to the Thessalonians, in chapter five, Rabbi Steve Berkson points out that Shaul was doing some damage control regarding the erroneous teaching about the return of Messiah even back then. • What was the prayer Rabbi Berkson prayed when it came to teaching about the end time?• How does one “prepare” for the return of Messiah?As this teaching was done during the 2020 election year, Rabbi Berkson imparts wisdom about what our mindset should be toward our nation’s politics and Elohim’s role in them.• Does being drunk only pertain to alcohol? What does being sober look like?Moving on into Thessalonians chapter five, we read as the apostle gives direction as to how the believers should be living their lives as they look forward to Messiah’s return. Rabbi Berkson unpacks what ‘sober’ looks like, and what is meant by putting on the breastplate of belief and love, and the helmet of the expectation of deliverance.In verse 12-13, Shaul writes that he begs the believers to “know” those who labor among you and are over you in the Master and admonish you, and to hold them in the highest regard in love. Rabbi Berkson relates what it’s like to be one of those in leadership and then explains how you should treat those in leadership with whom you interact.• Should your relationship with leadership be based on someone else’s experience with that leadership?Once again, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover even more dimensions of Darkness and Light.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 11

In the 1970’s the singer Bob Dylan sang “you gotta serve somebody.” He pretty much echoed the words from the Bible which has the same message from cover to cover and it’s your choice as to whom you will serve. In this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to another of the apostle Paul’s writings, known as the Book of Colossians. Beginning in chapter one, Paul addresses his letter to the “set-apart ones”, and “true brothers in Messiah.” From that greeting Rabbi Berkson has the context for the instruction that follows and the key text that deals with Darkness & Light.• Is there a wrong way to seek the favor of Elohim?• What is it we are to be filled with and how are we to walk in this life?• Does darkness have authority in the earth?• How does Christianity use verses 12 and 13 to promote the idea of “once saved, always saved”?• What was the purpose of the blood of Messiah that we see in verse 20?• Do you know what a “Rap Sheet” is? Did you know that we all had one?• What was it in Colossians 2:14 that was nailed to the stake of Messiah? Is this verse misinterpreted by some?• Can you “sin” against another person?• What is the greatest, if not the only problem in the Bible?• How do you become an enemy of God?• Why is the word ‘if’ the most awful word to some people?• What is the correct interpretation of Colossians 2:16-17?Once again, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover even more dimensions of Darkness and Light.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 10

Continuing the theme of how Darkness and Light relate to the authority structure of the Body of Messiah, Rabbi Steve Berkson starts this episode in Ephesians chapter four. At the beginning of this chapter the apostle Paul calls himself a “prisoner of the Master.” Rabbi Berkson stops at this to slow down and look at why Paul would refer to himself in that way.In the same verse Paul uses the phrase, “to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called.” Rabbi Berkson points out that this could be unsettling to some in other “faith-based” groups who believe once saved-always saved, and that there’s nothing else to do or add to the “work of Messiah.” So, why is worthiness brought into the conversation here?Yahweh has a vision of how his creation should work. Paul understood this as he penned his letters to the assemblies and referred to himself as a “prisoner.” Rabbi Berkson goes into length and depth about the problem with how some groups have taken on Yah’s vision and either co-opted or usurped the vision. This is a topic you will not hear discussed anywhere else, but is extremely vital to the growth of the Body of Messiah.Rabbi Berkson takes this thought and transitions to the focus of this teaching, the “Five-Fold Ministry”–apostles (emissaries), prophets, evangelists, shepherds and teachers. He refers to these anointed/appointed representatives as “Guardians of the Vision” and goes into a bit of depth in describing the roles of each position.• What does “leading astray” mean? Rabbi Berkson explains what that can look like.Winding up this teaching, Rabbi Berkson speaks comfort and assurance to you regarding the hope, not a guarantee, in the salvation that is provided to you for the coming age.Once again, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover even more dimensions of Darkness and Light.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 9

What does it mean to be in darkness? How does one know if they are in light?Rabbi Steve Berkson continues in the topic of Darkness & Light and how it relates to submission; in darkness being under no authority or wrong authority, and in light being under Yah’s authority.First we are taken to the letter to the Romans, chapter 2, verse 17 as we see the apostle Paul call out his brothers for being hypocrites in their role as “guides to the blind” – the blind as in referring to darkness – and a light to those in darkness. • Why did Paul have to come down on his brothers in the Jewish faith? • What was it that made them out to be hypocrites according to Paul?In this section Rabbi Berkson unpacks the meaning of circumcision and uncircumcision as Paul uses those terms when referring to the different groups of people.• If Paul was against torah-observance, as some would say, why did he say what he did in Romans 2:27?• What is one thing that living out Torah does for others?Moving from there to another letter from Paul to his assembly in Corinth, Rabbi Berkson takes us into 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 to enlighten us about the “Great Masquerade”.• Does Satan have horns, pointy tail and a pitch fork? What form can he take?• What if Satan’s workers actually did do wonders? Would you be deceived?Rabbi Berkson then leads us into Ephesians 5 to help us understand what it takes to become “imitators of Elohim”.• How can you be an imitator of someone who is no longer physically present?• To what is love always connected?• Why did Paul say that certain bad behaviors would keep them from the inheritance of the reign (kingdom) of Messiah? Weren’t the Ephesian’s “saved”? Who was Paul talking about?• What are the “empty words”? To where can they lead?Once again, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover even more dimensions of Darkness and Light.Related Teachings can be found here:• Beware False Prophets https://youtu.be/h3k6TXmzRe4• My Sheep Know My Voice https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_0hV4gKuq9Zwr2_aLd3J-M• What Did Yeshua Do? https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/steveberkson/episodes/2012-05-14T13_57_36-07_00• Love and Torah https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/steveberkson/episodes/2012-04-22T19_46_29-07_00• Are You Saved? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-XDS4JdFkY0WuOGluQm7_Y• INFOCUS: Put the Mic Down https://youtu.be/QTH6Vc2ssqQDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 8

In this episode of Darkness & Light, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues in the Gospel of John, the twelfth chapter, where “certain Greeks” wanted to see Yeshua.• Who were these “Greeks”? What did they want with Yeshua?From this event Rabbi Berkson makes the point that Messiah Yeshua was beginning to draw those of the nations (Gentiles) to Himself, fulfilling the purpose for which He was sent.• In what way do we serve Messiah Yeshua, according to Him?• Do you love your life in this world more than wholly following Yeshua?Yeshua also made the statement, “the ruler of this world shall be cast out.” • Who is “the ruler of this world”?• Who needs to be dethroned and cast out?• If Yeshua is Messiah, why did He have to die? Who is this “Son of Adam” Yeshua referred to Himself as?• If one rejects Messiah Yeshua and does not receive His words, what will judge him/her in the last day? What are His words?Then, Rabbi Steve takes us to the apostle Paul’s testimony of his journey from darkness into light in Acts chapter 26. In verse 18 Paul quotes the Prophet Isaiah in telling King Agrippa about the commission he has received from the master Yeshua.

Afterburn: Thoughts, Q&A on Darkness & Light - Part 7

Some of the topics covered are:• How can we understand the entity we know of as Elohim?• Is there such a thing as “Predestination”?• What does the term “called and chosen” mean?• Messiah Yeshua is still the Light of the World, right?• Like a baby in the womb, can there be protection in darkness?… and much more!Afterburn: also known in the world of fitness as the “afterburn effect”, simply put; The more intense the exercise, the more oxygen your body consumes afterward. The same could be true as you build up your spiritual self. After an intense teaching session, you need answers as more thoughts and questions consume you in your spiritual growth.Rabbi Steve Berkson, director of MTOI, provides an opportunity for the Afterburn to take place by additional thoughts and insight about what he just taught as well as answering questions from the local congregation and those watching the live stream.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 7

As he starts this episode in the Gospel of John chapter 1, verse 1, Rabbi Steve Berkson enlightens us with an interesting observation about Messiah Yeshua and the relationship that he has with his Father. This observation flies in the face of any other doctrine that is out there regarding “oneness”, or the “Trinity”, etc.• What role did Messiah Yeshua have in the creation account?• In what way does John 1 parallel Genesis 1?In John chapter 1 we are introduced to another John who would be known as “John the Immerser”, or “John the Baptist.”• Was there a clash between the two ministries, John and Yeshua?• How else was John known to the people–how did they regard him?• What was his role in the entrance of Messiah into the world?In verse 12 it says, “to those believing in His Name”, Rabbi Berkson clarifies the understanding that although the name of Yeshua is important, the message conveyed here is not so much the name as is the “authority” behind the name. Being in the state of “darkness” places one under no authority or under the wrong authority. Being in the state of “light”, one has submitted to the authority of Elohim. In that latter state, one is also given that authority to become the children of Elohim.From John chapter 1 Rabbi Berkson moves us into John chapter 3 so he can expound on the well-know verse 16. The exposition he gives on John 3:16 is not for the average listener, as there seems to be much more meaning in this one verse than most people have understood all their life.• What does it mean to “believe in Him”? Is belief merely mental assent?• Why are the words “should not” and “might” used in this verse?• Is John 3:16 an if/then statement?Moving forward into John 8:12 we see Messiah Yeshua make the declaration that He is the Light of Life. Then he makes the call to discipleship under Him by saying whoever follows Him would possess the Light. Rabbi Berkson gives insight as to what it means to possess something.Going forward in the Gospel of John, Rabbi Berkson stops at chapter 9 where we see the account of Yeshua healing a blind man. His disciples asked Him why and how did this man become blind. Was it something he did, his parents did? Rabbi Berkson cautions all of us to stop looking upon someone else’s condition and guessing why and how they got there. Sometimes it’s just for the purpose of manifesting the works of Elohim.Once again, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover even more dimensions of Darkness and Light.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 6

Diving right in to this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson starts us in Matthew 15:1 where we see the Scribes and Pharisees confronting Yeshua about how his disciples did not observe one of the “traditions of the elders”–the ceremonial washing of hands before eating food.• For what purpose did the religious authority of the First Century continually confront Yeshua?• What did the Pharisees do that Yeshua took issue with them about?• Are “traditions” bad and not to be observed at all?• What could Yeshua have done that would have completely destroyed his ministry?• What does the phrase, “blind leading the blind” mean?• What does the true ‘discipleship model’ look like?Rabbi Berkson then takes us to the passage in Isaiah 29:13-24 that Yeshua directly quoted when confronting the Scribes and Pharisees about elevating man-made traditions to the level of Torah, eclipsing actual Torah. In this passage Rabbi Berkson expands on the issue of Light vs. Dark being spoken of by the prophet. He also shares a conversation he had with an atheist in which Rabbi Steve proposed a “what-if” all that we believe turns out to not be true.Then in Luke 1:67-79 Rabbi Berkson shows us another aspect of Light in the purpose of John, a prophet and forerunner of Messiah Yeshua. His purpose was to also be a light to people of that time who were living in darkness, shining on the coming of Messiah, our hope of redemption.In Luke 4:17-21 we see Yeshua again quoting the prophet Isaiah in chapter 61, verses 1-2. Rabbi Berkson takes us to the passage in Isaiah and brings up an interesting point concerning the differences in translations of the Bible.• What translation was Yeshua reading from when he read Isaiah 61:1-2?Finally, Rabbi Berkson takes us into Isaiah 42:1-7, 16 to give more context to Isaiah 61:1-2 as that passage describes a role of the Messiah.Once again, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover • even more dimensions of Darkness and Light.Related Teachings can be found here:• INfocus: Nothing Wrong with Tradition, unless… https://youtu.be/19CYyFwcSD0• INfocus: What About Jewish Traditions? https://youtu.be/SNOOFiUAPkM• INfocus: Put the Mic Down? https://youtu.be/QTH6Vc2ssqQ• Discovering Your Identity https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX9sYCl1svmfxY2AfKCmf8H4Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 5

After a brief refreshing of the last four parts Rabbi Steve Berkson continues in Matthew 6:24, making the point that there are those who would start a teaching at this verse. He states that when other teachers skip ahead in this chapter some of the meaning of what Yehsua was getting across to his followers would be lost without the context of the previous twenty-three verses.Matthew 6:24 states a basic relational principle–that you cannot serve two masters. In this situation, as Rabbi Steve points out, it’s a question of who are you trying to please or impress, man or Elohim? If you try to please both you will become frustrated, ending up pleasing nobody because of how diametrically opposed each party is from the other. Yeshua is making the point that it is impossible.Then, moving into verses 25-34 Rabbi Berkson begins a section on something that all of us can succumb to – worry. Yet, Yeshua assures and comforts us with the knowledge that we are the most important to our Father in all of his creation.Connecting to the topic of ‘worry’ Rabbi Steve gets into what he calls a “problem with husbands and wives.” He provides some excellent counsel for the dynamics of the spousal relationship. He also encourages and exhorts you to become the man or the woman that Yah intended you to be–the journey starts from where in your life you are today.Segueing from there into Matthew 11:28-30 Rabbi Berkson points out that Yeshua is speaking discipleship language when he talks about taking his yoke upon you. Taking on the yoke and burden of Yeshua is also the solution to worry. Rabbi Steve gives an unexpected and interesting perspective on the word ‘light’ in verse 30.Moving forward, Rabbi Berkson links the teaching of Yeshua with the words of Paul in 2 Corinthians 6:1 through 7:2 as Paul writes to his assembly in Corinth about being ‘yoked’, or learning from unbelievers.• What is a “believer”?• What does it mean to be “lawless”?Once again, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover even more dimensions of Darkness and Light.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 4

As he finishes the Tanakh portion of Darkness & Light, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes you to Proverbs 6:20-25 and makes the comparison of parental instruction and instruction from the Eternal Father. The way the author worded phrases in Proverbs was as a father talking to his son, but should be interpreted for you today as your heavenly Father talking to you. Rabbi Berkson also points out that the Torah not only functions as a light instructionally, but it also has a nurturing aspect as would a mother’s role in giving instruction to her children, giving comfort and encouragement.What is meant by a “flattering tongue”?How many different ways can you attach the Torah to yourself?How is “deep” darkness defined?Moving into the Brit Chadasha (New Testament), Rabbi Berkson expounds Matthew 4:13-17 as this passage includes a quote from Isaiah as a Messianic proof of Yeshua being the light. The people who were living in that area at that time were sitting in gloom and darkness, not only under the oppression of Rome, but also under the religious system of that time who’s leaders were hiding light from them.Then staying within the context of Matthew 4, Yeshua the Light, Rabbi Berkson expounds further as he moves us into chapter 5 where we see Yeshua sitting on a hillside instructing his disciples along with the multitude about what it takes to also become a Light to the world.In what way are you today “like the prophets of old”?How do you “lay up treasure in Heaven”?Why is the ‘so’ in the phrase, (Matt 5:16) “Let your light so shine before men”? What are the good works?Is the definition of the English word ‘fulfill’ or ‘complete’ in Matthew 5:17, ‘to terminate’ or ‘do away with’?Once again, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover even more dimensions of Darkness and Light.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Could there be those who are walking in varying degrees of darkness? How would they know? Is it possible that they think they’re walking in light, but are not? What would be your role in interacting with them?How do you get to the place where you trust anyone to teach you how to walk out your faith? Are there out there those who are anointed and appointed by the Creator with the ability to help you navigate through life? How do you find those anointed and appointed?“If you can’t get to the place of trust, you’ll never be able to progress. Progression forward comes out of a place of trust.” ~ Rabbi BerksonIs it a good thing to be simple of mind and heart?

Darkness & Light - Part 2

• Can people go back into Darkness once they’ve been in the Light? (Isaiah 59:1-10)• What does it mean to “speak falsehood”?• How do “works” provide, or not provide, a “covering”? (Isaiah 59:6)• What are the two types of Darkness?• What is “thick” darkness?• How does the Light work in us toward others around us?• What does the phrase “In Your light we see light” mean?• Are there those who could be called the walking dead?Rabbi Steve Berkson identifies the problem people encounter while walking the straight-and-narrow. At some point they begin to doubt, which can turn into disbelief in the deliverance of Yah. This problem moves them slowly into darkness, a place of groping around and not finding their way. However, even in that darkness there is still mercy and compassion in that through the gift of repentance, then heeding the voice of an anointed-appointed, the Light can lead them back to the path of life.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Darkness & Light - Part 1

This teaching begins a new series of teachings on the subject of darkness and light. From Genesis to Revelation the Bible has much to say and teach us about these two things that we humans experience in our physical world. While darkness and light are two separate entities, they are dependent on each other. Scientists have studied darkness and light extensively, not only on this earth, but also beyond into the universe. They have measured the speed of light at 186,000 miles-per-hour. The brightness of light can be calculated in units called lux or to use the precise scientific terminology, illuminance.In this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson lays the foundation for the rest of this series in the meanings of darkness and light that goes beyond the physical and into the spiritual aspects of which the scriptures present for our knowledge and understanding, so that the Light will shine in our lives!Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Honor & Shame - Part 8

In Luke 14:1-14 we see Yeshua teaching about honor and shame using the example of the seating arrangement at a wedding feast, making the point about how shameful self-exaltation can be and how honorable it is to have genuine humility. As He was teaching He used a phrase, “resurrection of the righteous”–what does this mean?How are your vertical and horizontal relationships? Do you understand your place and role? Do you understand that if you have a place of authority over others that you also have an authority over you? Do you conduct yourself accordingly with honor? Are you showing the same kindness and patience to others that was shown to you?Do you have a “limited definition” of evil? How is evil defined in scripture?When is public correction of someone appropriate? By whom? What was Paul’s instruction to Timothy his student?What does the phrase, under the yoke, refer to? To whom is due “double respect/honor”?Bringing this teaching to its conclusion, Rabbi Steve Berkson’s desire is for you to understand that as you conduct yourself in ways that bring bring honor to Messiah and the Father, honor/respect/esteem will come back to you from them and from those around you.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Honor & Shame - Part 7

There are events in your life that reflect whether or not you bring honor or shame to Messiah and the Father.In Luke 9:23 we hear Yeshua Messiah lay out the requirements for being a follower of Him.What does it mean to take up your stake daily? How does that bring honor?Have you been called into this walk to be miserable? Do you feel trapped in a cycle of guilt caused from your perception of “not ever getting it right”? You can break out of that cycle through using a gift that has been given you by the Father–what is that gift?“Yahweh is not so concerned with what you did wrong, rather, He wants to see what you do next–do you acknowledge the wrong and repent, or do you act like “oh well, no big deal”? The honorable way is to own the mistake, use the gift of repentance and move forward.”Are there things or people in your life that are toxic to your walk? How do you deal with them honorably?Rabbi Berkson breaks down Matt 19:16-30: Why was eternal life asked about and not “salvation”? Why did Yeshua say “If you wish to be ‘perfect’”? What does ‘perfect’ mean in this interaction? Rabbi Berkson connects a few scripture dots to clarify the meaning of ‘perfect’. Was Yeshua speaking only of this man’s material possessions?Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Honor & Shame - Part 6

What better way is there to give honor to the Father than to follow in the steps of our teacher Messiah Yeshua and become one in every way with the Father.In this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues where we left off in John 17 where we find Yeshua praying for His disciples to be “one, even as we are one”.In an unexpected right turn, Rabbi Berkson takes us into Ephesians 4:11 to show us through the words of the apostle Paul that there are people in various positions whose purpose is to help us get to this place of unity with each other and being one with the Father.Is there a difference between being “child-like” and behaving like a child?What is a “Gentile”?When we see the phrase, put off the old man that has been corrupted–what does corrupted mean? Rabbi Berkson explains what being corrupted is in this sense.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Honor & Shame - Part 5

In John 17 we read about one of the last prayers Yeshua prayed, and He prayed not only for His disciples, but for us also. To begin the prayer, Yeshua prayed to be glorified/esteemed or honored so that His Father would also be honored. This should be a model for all who are Yeshua’s disciple, that we should seek honor only so that our Father would receive honor by the way we think, talk and act.For those who seek to “go deeper” into understanding of the text, Rabbi Berkson gives the opportunity in this episode as he brings out some things that you may not have seen or thought of as you’ve read this passage before.Why should you have authority over your “flesh”?

In John 11:4 we see the event where a friend of Yeshua, Lazarus, is on his death bed and Yeshua says that His Father will receive honor in what happens. Rabbi Steve Berkson brings this event into your life today by pointing out that something you may be going through looks to be hopeless, but to hang on and stay strong, for when you come out of your situation you’ll be able to bring honor to your Heavenly Father. What is the one vital thing that you should embrace from all your learning about and understanding of the scriptures and stories in our Bible?Then in John 12:20-26 Yeshua says, “If anyone serves Me, the Father shall value him.” By the definition we’ve learned about the word honor, we know that to value someone or something is another form of honoring that someone or something. What does it look like to you to ‘serve’ someone? What does it mean to “hate” your life?Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Honor & Shame - Part 3

What qualified Yeshua to be able to teach with authority? Under who did He disciple? This is the question that the First-Century religious authority asked Yeshua right after He healed someone in a synagogue on Shabbat, as we find in the book of John chapter 7.Yeshua informs them that He has been discipled of His Father, something they could not understand or accept. They then attempt to publicly shame Yeshua.Moving into chapter 8, verse 12, we find Messiah Yeshua again teaching in the Temple and the Pharisees again coming to Him in an attempt to again publicly shame Him. Yeshua continues to proclaim what and who He is, giving honor to His Father.The way Yeshua received honor from His Father is something that we can do also today–what is it? (John 8:29)John 8:32 is mostly quoted and taught as a self-standing verse, “and you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.” However, this verse starts with the word ‘and’–what proceeds is vitally important, what is it?Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Moving into the letter to the Hebrews chapters 7-9, a comparison or contrast of not only the two priesthoods, Levitical and Melchizedekian, begins to be made, but also a comparison of the two temples–earthly and heavenly.Then, arriving at the key verse that has to do with the Covenant, 7:22, Rabbi Steve Berkson proposes a better, more understandable translation and interpretation of the Greek behind the English.Rabbi Berkson points out a significant revelation regarding the thought that the Torah and Covenant was “weak” and “earthly” which is that they were not what was weak or earthly, but rather, it was the human-beings that were operating within the Torah and Covenant.

In the last episode Rabbi Steve Berkson unpacked more of the nuances of being in covenant by diving into the letter to the Hebrews, the Book of Hebrews. He moved at record pace going through the first four chapters in one setting. Now we understand and should try to relate to the First-Century audience as the author of the letter makes the case for Messiah Yeshua’s place in the “big picture” and in the lives of the individuals as their standard of lifestyle was about to go away–the destruction of the Temple by the Romans and the suspension of the Aaronic/Levitical priesthood.With that said we now go into chapter five where the author explains the differences between the Aaronic/Levitical priesthood and the Melchizedekian priesthood.Then from chapter five Rabbi Steve touches on chapter six where we see a passage that has perplexed many, verses 4 through 6, specifically the word ‘impossible’. Does the passage tell us that some are doomed to destruction with no return?If you’ve ever been told that the Book of Hebrews is just too hard to understand, then you definitely should watch this episode. Rabbi Berkson breaks down verse by verse, passage by passage, passionately relating the revealed meanings so that you understand and benefit.Questions:• If Messiah Yeshua takes on the role of High Priest (Heb 3:1) and does not qualify for the Aaronic - Priesthood, how can He be in that role?• What “perfected” Messiah Yeshua? What do we struggle with?• How does one become “dull of hearing”?

Covenant Community 101: Are You Covenanted? Part 51

This exciting episode begins the letter to the Hebrews. The goal of going through this letter is to get to chapter 7 and verse 22 where it speaks of Yeshua being the guarantor of a “better covenant”. What does this mean and hasn’t it caused a lot of trouble due to mainstream Christianity’s interpretation of this verse? But, in order to do that, Rabbi Steve Berkson starts us on the journey from the beginning of the letter in order to understand, through context, what the author is saying leading up to chapter 7.Questions:• Why was the letter to the Hebrews written? What was going on at that time?• What happens when the structure of your way of life no longer exists?• Where does Messiah Yeshua fit into the picture of what was happening at that time?• What perishes and what remains?• Does the letter to the Hebrews talk about transitioning to a different set of laws?• Hebrews 4:10 talks about resting from one’s own works–what could this mean?Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtm• Do You Know the Father and the Son? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX85eE0WcFyzM6xquyz7r_RC• Endure and Receive the Crown of Life https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX8XUQYclJ4pJpVyjj9jIQ2x• To He Who Overcomes https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_vAjOy2Jk2cyCv2Li0ZQf-• The Heart of the Matter https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_O_DuSxpxaOIPKqKENGP0s• INfocus: This is the Good News? https://youtu.be/doC343i4ki0 Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Covenant Community 101: Are You Covenanted? Part 50

Moving forward from last week, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us into Romans chapters 11 and 12, then to Ephesians chapter 2, where he interprets the writing of the apostle Paul quite a bit differently than most of us have ever heard taught before. Because of this, Rabbi Steve clarifies further his position on the understanding of “grace” or favor, specifically whether it is merited or unmerited. Could it be both? In this message we see the beauty of the kindness and faithfulness of our Creator as He offers the opportunity to enter into His Covenant even though we have done nothing up to that point to deserve it.Questions:• Romans 10:17 talks of “hearing by the Word of God”, is there an underlying message that is lost in the translation?• What exactly is the “Good News”?• What is the “disease” we see in the Bible from start to finish?• All people before Acts 2 could not be “righteous” because they didn’t have the Holy Spirit?• Can you empty yourself?Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtm• The Search for the Doctrine of Grace https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX91R_Lz3jOfHHCxJV6XebkV• Understanding the Ruach/Spirit https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_0Mi7M6VeNIqg8eu1f_QBm• INfocus: This is the Good News? https://youtu.be/doC343i4ki0• INfocus: A Whole Lumber Yard https://youtu.be/eEzQOoVlMA0• What is Worship? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-_h58GEfh00Hbr_JozebDE• Do You Know the Father and the Son? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX85eE0WcFyzM6xquyz7r_RC• Developing the Character of Yeshua https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_fefHRSPcUlLPsRSeHwxsb• What Would Yeshua Do? • INfocus: That’s Not Submission! https://youtu.be/a73Wn6jCz_E Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Covenant Community 101: Are You Covenanted? Part 49

As he continues in Romans chapters 10 and 11, Rabbi Steve Berkson has received some clear insight on a couple of troublesome verses. Understanding the context of the letter to the Roman assembly is the key, as he explains in the first part of this teaching. Not only the context in this letter, but also, context from the Tanakh as the apostle Paul references it time and time again to establish his points. Context is critical to gaining the correct understanding and interpretation, especially when it has to do with the writings of Paul.Questions:- When the word ‘saved’ or ‘delivered’ is used, is it clearly understood, ‘saved’ or ‘delivered’ from what? Does it refer to a future event?- What does it mean to be “sent”? Isn’t there a “Great Commission” on all of us?- Some teach that Israel has been “replaced” because God is done with them–is that true?- What is pre-destination, divine selection and being chosen? Are they one and the same?- What is it that a Gentile has that a Jew would be jealous of?Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Covenant Community 101: Are You Covenanted? Part 48

Can you say that the things you are suffering now because of your faith are not worthy to be compared to the honor (glory) that shall be revealed in you?Who’s the ‘he’ that “searches the hearts”?Is it true that nothing can separate us from the love of Messiah?Romans 10:4 reads that Messiah is the end of the law for righteousness–what does the word ‘end’ mean in that sentence?Did Paul misquote Moses in Romans 10:6-8?As we’ve progressed through the book of Romans, we see how the apostle Paul addresses two major issues among his congregation: 1. The rift between those who are native-born Israeli and those of the nations (Gentiles), and, 2. Paul refers to at least two sets of “laws”, the Torah and the “law of sin and death”. In this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson slowly and methodically takes us through Romans chapters 8 through 10, untangling 2,000 years of erroneous understanding and twisted teaching. He exposes the more sensible scenario in which Paul would actually be writing to his Roman congregation about being Torah observant and not the other way around.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtm• Endure and Receive the Crown of Life https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX8XUQYclJ4pJpVyjj9jIQ2x• To He Who Overcomes https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_vAjOy2Jk2cyCv2Li0ZQf-• Are You Saved? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-XDS4JdFkY0WuOGluQm7_Y• Do You Know the Father and the Son? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX85eE0WcFyzM6xquyz7r_RC• Understanding the Ruach/Spirit https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_0Mi7M6VeNIqg8eu1f_QBm• Baptism of Fire https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX9AWP1xgzwYpV84LbShjxe-• Discovering Your Identity https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX9sYCl1svmfxY2AfKCmf8H4 Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Covenant Community 101: Are You Covenanted? Part 46

Why was Messiah Yeshua “delivered up” and then “raised”?Is Yahweh “obligated” to us?What is the one thing on which Jews and Christians agree?Is the apostle Paul teaching his congregation against circumcision of the flesh? Is “circumcision of the heart” a concept exclusive to the New Testament?This teaching is particularly challenging for the teacher and for the listener/disciple because of how the apostle Paul chose to word his thoughts in this letter to the beloved, set-apart ones in Rome. Taking us into Romans, chapters 4 and 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings clarity to this problematic text through context (who is speaking, to whom is the speaking directed, when, why and where), redefining terminology (circumcision/uncircumcision to covenanted/not covenanted), and by moving slowly through the text, not glossing over any phrase or passage.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtm• The Search for the Doctrine of Grace https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX91R_Lz3jOfHHCxJV6XebkV• Beware False Prophets https://youtu.be/h3k6TXmzRe4• Endure and Receive the Crown of Life https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX8XUQYclJ4pJpVyjj9jIQ2xDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

In the face of 2,000 years of twisted teaching, you will discover that the apostle Paul was not teaching that the “law” has been “done away with”–actually the English word “law” has to be clarified first before anything else around it can be understood. Rabbi Steve Berkson will endeavor to use the word “law” instead of Torah, because when Paul uses the word “law” (in the Greek “nomos”), he’s not always referring to Torah, which can skew the understanding of what he’s talking about.If you would like to have a clearer understanding of the “what and why” the apostle Paul wrote to the followers of Yeshua who were in Rome, then you really do want to hit the play button on this teaching as Rabbi Steve Berkson begins to analyze the book of Romans from start to finish, chapter by chapter, verse by verse, to answer the question, “Are You Covenanted?”Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Continuing with Paul’s Corinthian congregation, in his second letter he reaffirms his leadership and authority under Messiah (2 Cor 3:1). Consider that the congregates were primarily Jewish under a system that built fences around the Torah and who knew the Torah from a “letter of the law” perspective in contrast to the new teaching about the “spirit of the law”.In this message to the Body of Messiah, Rabbi Steve Berkson breaks down some of the difficult concepts from the apostle Paul that are misunderstand and, therefore, misquoted by many to declare that the law (Torah) has been abolished.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

He also spends a fair amount of time on “guarding” the Torah as opposed to merely keeping or observing it.Then, getting started in Jeremiah chapter 31, Rabbi Steve relates how the Covenant at Sinai was actually a marriage ceremony between Yahweh and His people. From that, Rabbi Steve gives vital instruction to those who would enter into marriage and those who would renew their vows.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

They were living in the land and claiming Yahweh to be their Elohim yet, at the same time, living according to the idolatry of the nations around them, but thinking they were doing it unto Yahweh. Yahweh said no more! “Why should my beloved be in my house? She has done wickedness with many.” (Jeremiah 11:15)Rabbi Steve Berkson points out from the warnings of Jeremiah that loving with the world and being in covenant with Yahweh is impossible. You will have to hate one and love the other.Going forward, Rabbi Berkson digs deep into the metaphor of the olive tree with its branches getting broken off and other branches grafted in beginning in Jeremiah 11:16 and moving into Romans 11 and John 15.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Continuing on our journey through the book of Proverbs we are staying with the topic of how wisdom, understanding and knowledge relate to keeping covenant with the Almighty. In this episode Rabbi Steve Berkson continues looking at the references of “wormwood” to discover the relevance for you today. We also discover that a majority of what we read in the writings of the Apostles (New Testament) can be found as having already been said and written about in the Tanak (Old Testament). Rabbi Steve gives an example of that in the verse from Jeremiah 23:28 that talks of the chaff and wheat relating it to a parable given by Yeshua in Matthew 13.Why aren’t we in the Hebrew Roots, Messianic Movement, Torah Observant group seeing the manifestation of miracles like perhaps the Christian group claiming to see?Rabbi Steve tells us his mandate in teaching the Body of Messiah.

Do you place high value on Torah and the Covenant? How about wisdom? Isn’t it through wisdom that Yahweh has a relationship with us? What is the beginning of wisdom?Is intelligence the same as wisdom? What does wisdom accomplish exactly?Continuing in the book of Proverbs, Rabbi Steve Berkson teaches from chapter 3 about how extremely critical it is for relationship, right relationship, and the mechanics of doing the commandments work together. The highest value must be placed on wisdom because it is a tree of life to those taking hold of her, and blessed are those who retain it. You must retain it. Rabbi Steve spends a bit of time on retaining wisdom by going to the Parable of the Sower in Matthew 13.In this teaching you’ll hear what it means to be a good employee and adorn the Word of Elohim in your life.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlDo You Know the Father and the Son?INfocus: Human[being]Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

What we’ve been dealing with in Proverbs is the other part of keeping covenant–the ‘why’ we do what He says to do (or not do). We know there is the “mechanical” part–the how, what, where, when, but we need to understand that the attitude of our heart works together with the mechanical to provide the “why” we are in covenant with Yahweh.Is it necessary that you completely understand everything you have to do within this covenant?How does being covenanted affect your health, finances, etc.?What’s the first thing you should do before handing over your sovereignty to Yeshua?Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

In 1 Chronicles 16 we see within a song of praise that went up in thanksgiving there is a “covenantal-mindset”. What is that “covenantal-mindset”? What happened to Israel when the “covenantal-mindset” faded away?1 Chronicles 16:22 is the statement, “Do not touch my anointed ones, and do My prophets no evil.” What does this mean? Could you be accused of having done this?What does it mean to be a Light to this World? To whom were the prophets typically sent? How do you see that being abused today?Continuing with, “The Role and Effect of Leadership on Covenant Keeping”, Rabbi Steve Berkson wants you to embrace two things; 1) that it is your responsibility to find good leadership, anointed and appointed leadership, and, 2) put yourself under and be submissive to that authority. The reason for this is that in the scriptures we see the leadership, whether a prophet or a sovereign, being the one given the greater vision for the people. Also, the leadership are those who set the expectation and standard as to the commitment of the people to hold fast to the Covenant.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtml• Learn & Teach the Torah• Time to Re-dedicate YourselfDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

What happens when there’s more than one vision within a group?Why did Joshua have to remind the people that they were in covenant with their Creator?How does being “unequally yoked” (2 Cori 6:14) affect your Covenant keeping?From the book of Joshua we move to the next book, Judges, to see that Israel still doesn’t have it in their heart, to love Elohim, to abide by the Covenant with Him and is told that they will be tested by the nations that they did not remove.

Rabbi Steve Berkson subtitles this teaching, “The Role and Effect of Leadership in Covenant Keeping.”He starts by taking us to Deuteronomy 31 to show how that after the Covenant had been established the people did well with keeping it sometimes and not so well at other times. The role of the leadership and the way the people interacted with the leadership has a direct connection with the fledgling nation’s ability to uphold their part of the Creator’s Covenant.Who was the “leadership” in the time of Mosheh (Moses)? Who had the “burden” of physically bearing the Covenant? Could there be a deeper significance to this “burden”?Moving from the book of Deuteronomy, Rabbi Steve Berkson shows us from the passage of Joshua 3:1-4 how important it is for us to “keep our distance.” Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtml• Making Decisions…the reason you exist• What is Worship?• The Heart of the MatterDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

What is the definition of evil?Is keeping the Covenant really that big of a deal? Hasn’t it been “done away with” because of the Messiah?Who are the teachers today? What is the leadership structure today? Isn’t it now all about the “Holy Spirit”?What is the “essence” of all covenants?Digging deeper into what it means to be in covenant, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues to uncover exciting treasures that have been obscured by the erroneous teaching of a system that uses the word covenant, but really has no clue as to what being in covenant means.

Covenant Community 101: Are You Covenanted? Part 9

Continuing in Deuteronomy, Rabbi Steve Berkson shows us how to recognize certain words and phrases continuously linked to help you understand what they’re about. What do you suppose is the phrase that links to the Covenant?As we look at a “covenant within the Covenant” made with the tribe of Levi we see that one of the responsibilities of the Levites was to bear the Covenant (Ark of the Covenant) and to establish the Torah as the foundation of Israel. Who has that responsibility today?As a part of Covenant-Keeping we are told by Yahweh not to worship Him in the same way the Gentiles around us worship their Elohim. What do you see around you today that is going against that commandment?Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlThe Fear of YahwehDo Not Do As They DoDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

As he said he would, Rabbi Steve Berkson spends a bit more time teaching on Deuteronomy 4:9. He points out the emphasis placed on the exhortation to “guard yourself” lest you forget the words your eyes have seen. How does one “see the words”?The second part of Deu 4:9 instructs the reader to make those words known to your children and grandchildren. How do we do that today?Are you having trouble in your Torah observance? Rabbi Steve tells you what the number one cause.Deu 4:16-19 talks about guarding yourself so that you don’t create idols for yourself. What is this talking about? Is it wrong to have collectibles? Is it wrong for someone who likes hunting to use decoys or put trophies on the wall?Then comes MTOI’s favorite chapter, Deuteronomy 8! Here, Rabbi Steve addresses the question of some, “How much of the law and commandments are we really supposed to obey?” (Hint: verse1 and 3 hold the key)Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlThe Fear of YahwehBaptism of FireDo You Know the Father and the Son?The Heart of the MatterRepentanceThe Millennium and The KingdomDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Now that you’ve learned about the relationship between salvation, faith and works, and that “saved” is not a status in the “Are You Saved” series, it makes sense to learn about the one thing that could be considered a status worth bearing–being “in covenant” or “covenanted”.In this series Rabbi Steve Berkson begins to define “covenant” as seen throughout scripture; covenants between persons and covenants between Elohim and mankind. Sometimes Yahweh makes a covenant with himself. Other times in scripture we see Yahweh making a covenant with His creation.When was the first covenant established?What’s the difference between a promise and a covenant?How is being covenanted going to affect your life?

If we already “possess” everlasting life, why are we instructed by Messiah Yeshua in John chapter 6 not to labor for the bread that perishes but rather for the bread that is remaining unto everlasting life which the Son of Adam gives? What is that “bread” referring to? How do men get this concept wrong?From there, Rabbi Steve takes us deeper into the Gospel of John, chapter 10 verse 24, where we see the followers/disciples of Messiah Yeshua referred to as sheep. Who are his sheep? Who are not his sheep? What does it mean to be considered his sheep.What is the heavenly hierarchy?From there Rabbi Steve moves us to 1 John chapter 5 and asks the question, what does it mean that we should possess the Son?

Continuing from part 7, Rabbi Steve teaches further on the topic of guarding the Torah and possessing the Witness. As he takes us to Luke 10:25 we see once again Messiah Yeshua being tested by someone considered as “learned”. We also see here the word “inherit” being used regarding eternal life. What does this mean? How does it bring an critical understanding to being “saved”?In this passage we also see the question, “What must I do…”; how did Yeshua respond?Is salvation through Messiah the same as receiving eternal life?In Luke 8 we find the parable of the Seed and the Sower. Rabbi Steve takes us backwards through Yeshua’s explanation of this parable in order to understand it in a very unique way.If the “soil” is symbolic of the heart of a person, are people locked-in to the type of “soil” they find themselves to be, or can people choose the type of “soil” they would like to be? To what is the “fruit” referring? What is the key word most people overlook when reading about the “good soil”?In your excitement about discovering the truth of Torah, was your first reaction to run to tell your family and friends all about it? Rabbi Steve gives some crucial advice on how to avoid being blown out when starting your Torah-observant life.Rabbi Steve continues to unpack and expand through scripture the understanding of this vital topic of the relationship between salvation, faith/belief and works.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlThe Heart of the MatterDo You Know the Father and the Son?CC101: Endure and Receive the Crown of LifeBaptism of FireNo Other NameCC101: Discovering Your IdentityDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

What does the saying mean, “Our righteousness is as filthy rags”?In Acts 16:30 someone asked, “What do I have to do to be saved?” How are we saved?Do we ‘need’ the writings of Paul, of Peter, or the other writers of the New Testament? Can a person lead another to the narrow path that leads to the Kingdom of Elohim without those writings?What should be the correct order of reading and better understanding the books of the New Testament?In Matthew 19:16-22 we see Yeshua telling a man to sell what they own and follow Him, but he went away sad because he had great possessions…what are you attached to that would keep you from wholly following the Messiah?

Rabbi Steve Berkson focuses on the topic of “Who Shall be Saved?”, as he takes us to the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 13. There we find the parable Yeshua taught about “The Wheat and the Tares” – which was meant to describe two types of people within the congregation of Elohim.How do we know today who is which? Does that responsibility rest on us? If Elohim knows about this (He does), why does He allow it? What will be done and when? By whom?From there Rabbi Steve moves to Paul’s letter written to those who were in Rome–those who’s eyes and ears were opened and whose hearts were ready to receive–those who should know better. In chapter 11 Paul begins by posing the question, “Has God rejected His people?” Rabbi Steve points out that even then people were consumed with “Who gets in and who doesn’t”.

Covenant Community 101: Are You Saved? Part 4

Has the One who chose a group of people from among a group of people and set them apart unto Himself rejected those people? Has now another group of people replaced them? Weren’t there promises made according to The Covenant that was made with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob? Wasn’t there an expectation by the chosen people that those promises were for them?What does the Prophet Ezekiel have to say about the chosen people? What are the “sticks and bones” in Ezekiel chapter 37 all about? What are the “graves”? How do they connect with something Yeshua Messiah said?What is “the stuff before the then”?Rabbi Steve Berkson unpacks all this and more here in part 4. He also reminds us that periodically we need to stop and evaluate where we are in our walk to determine if we’re on the right path or if we need to backup to where we made a wrong turn and get back into the right direction.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlBaptism of FireThe Millennium & The KingdomDo Not Do As They DoCC101: What Are You Thinking?Cling, Cleave, Hold FastThe Heart of the MatterDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

What’s wrong with Christianity? Aren’t there “good people” there? Most of us who are now in the Messianic Torah Observant community came from Christianity. Wasn’t there anything good we learned from being there? Can’t we bring something over with us as we’ve transitioned to Torah observance? Didn’t we consider ourselves as “saved” while under that system? What deadly disease can the system of Christianity be compared to?Rabbi Steve Berkson brings extremely important answers and perspective to these and many other thoughts and questions regarding “come out of her my people”, as well as “get her out of you my people”.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlBeware False ProphetsDo You Know the Father and the Son?

Covenant Community 101: Are You Saved? Part 2

After a quick review of part 1, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues exploring the doctrine of “once saved, always saved” and the relationship between salvation, faith and works. Rabbi Steve plays the little game called, “What if I had the power to live forever and could choose those with whom to live forever.”During the Pesach seder, the tradition of “The Four Cups” is performed–the four cups being Sanctification, Deliverance, Redemption and Acceptance, aka, “the “salvation process”. In this teaching Rabbi Steve focuses on the last three cups.Deliverance–deliverance from what? The Law? Which law? Redemption–what is redemption? Who was redeemed and who was the redeemer? Acceptance–where do we see an acceptance by The Creator of a people? What did that look like? How do you know if you’ve been accepted? Is there an expectation by anyone to do something?Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlThe Search for the Doctrine of GraceDo You Know the Father and the Son?My Sheep Know My VoiceUnderstanding the Ruach/SpiritINfocus: Leave Them AloneDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Covenant Community 101: What Are You Thinking? - Part 12

Can the dead come to life today? Rabbi Steve Berkson kicks this teaching off by taking you to Ephesians 2 where the Apostle Paul writes about the dead coming to life. This is also found in Colossians 3 where it reads, “If, then, you were raised with Messiah…Do you know what things to do to please your spouse? Are you doing what is pleasing to The Creator, in the way He intended? Rabbi Steve takes you to Matthew 22 to begin to understand what you need to do in order to please Abba. We see Yeshua quoting the “v’ahavta”, Deuteronomy 6:5-9, saying that we should love Yahweh with all of our mind. Also as is written in Philippians 2:5 that you “let this mind be in you that was also in Messiah Yeshua.” The word ‘let’ indicates a personal responsibility to allow this to happen. In Romans 12 Rabbi Steve brings out that it is your “reasonable service” to renew your mind so that you will know how to please your Heavenly Father. Again, it is evident that it is your responsibility to do this as you are motivated by love–His for you and yours for Him.Yeshua said, “take my yoke upon you”, referring to His teaching and discipleship. Rabbi Steve takes you to Luke 24 to make the point of discipleship under an anointed and appointed teacher being crucial to learning the correct way of thinking about how you walk out your faith.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlThe Fear of YahwehDo You Know the Father and the Son?To He Who OvercomesDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Continuing the topic, “The Mind and Thinking of Man, and How It Relates to Authority”, Rabbi Steve Berkson once again redefines words and terms that have been lost to time and culture.Rabbi Steve takes us first to the Gospel of Matthew 16:21 where we see Yeshua telling His disciples how He would die and then be brought back to life. But Peter rebukes Him and Yeshua rebukes Peter back; was Peter demon-possessed?How is the thought process related to becoming an enemy of God?Continuing, Rabbi Steve takes us to Romans 8 where he unpacks the writing of Paul in a way you probably have not heard before. Which “law” is being talked about? Is it always referring to the Torah? What is meant by “Spirit”? Is it a wispy, smoke-like thing that enters a human?Find out which verse it is that is key to understanding that Yeshua Messiah died for the world.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlUnderstanding the Ruach/SpiritINfocus: The Three VoicesDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

We know that the “seed” is the Word of God and the “soil” is our heart. Rabbi Steve teaches us about the “soil/heart” and how it interacts with the “seed/Word of God”, and how the way we think has a huge part in that interaction.

Covenant Community 101: What Are You Thinking? - Part 8

Rabbi Steve Berkson continues the topic, “The mind and thinking of man, and how it relates to authority”. He begins in Matthew 3 where we see Yochanan (John), the immerser preaching and immersing the people. Rabbi Steve points out that it’s highly likely, Yochanan was the legitimate High Priest of his time, which is why the people were coming out to him.We see the religious rulers of that time coming out to see what’s going on and Yochanan calls them out, saying, “Do not think to say to yourselves…”. They thought they didn’t need what Yochanan was doing because of their genealogy, being descendants of Abraham, they were alright. It’s a “thinking process” for bad or for good.“We think, unfortunately, with our own agenda–we need to be thinking with His agenda–how do we take His agenda and turn it into actions, habits and Destiny?”“We live according to His Word because of our love for him, our trust in Him, belief in Him–knowing that what we do is going to bring the rewards He has promised us.”Rabbi Steve packs this teaching with concepts and principles that you can use right now in your walk.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlCC101: Discovering Your IdentityBaptism of FireUnderstanding the RuachCC101: Get Out the LeavenMaster, Teach Us to PrayForgivenessThe Pursuit of RighteousnessINfocus - The Fullness of the IntentDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Rabbi Steve Berkson addresses the topic of “Yeshua knows our thoughts and our struggle with authority”. We begin with the event where Yeshua healed a person by simply saying “Your sins be forgiven you”, which caused an uproar with the religious leaders of the time, accusing Yeshua of blasphemy. They could not accept the authority of Yeshua as Messiah because of their predisposed thinking of who the Messiah should be. Yeshua didn’t fit their paradigm.What does “blasphemy” mean? Can just anyone commit “blasphemy”? What is meant by “the reign (kingdom) of Elohim (God) has come upon you”? Do you struggle with recognizing the authority of those you interact with? Have you found the teacher or leader who is meant for you? He may not be according to your paradigm, but this is the reason you are here–to figure out whose authority you are under, your’s?, haSatan’s?, Yahweh’s?. Who do you think is in charge?This teaching is full of practical application material that will definitely keep you on the path to the Kingdom. Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Although Yahweh told a group of people that He chose them to be a select group for His purpose, there was a contingency attached, the “if/then” that we read about–“If you diligently obey my voice, then I will accept you as my people.” So, regardless of what is taught about Jesus did it all, did He really? Yeshua did what He had to do and none of what we need to do. We still have a responsibility to hear and do what we are commanded and walk before Him in humility.

Tithing is a part of the Restoration Process–of coming into observance of the Torah. Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us into the book of Nehemiah, chapters 9 and 10 to teach us that as we come into covenant with the Creator, become obedient to His Torah, which includes tithes and offerings, so that those who are ministering among us–teaching us, leading us, helping us to understand–should by our obedient giving be “strengthened in the Torah” and then we in turn the same.Then moving into Malachi chapter 3 we see Yahweh warning the priests, the Levites, about “robbing” Him concerning tithes and offerings and challenging them, and us, to prove Him to see if He will not open the windows of heaven and pour out more blessings than they can deal with–but they/we must turn from their ways and get back on the righteous path.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlThe Heart of the MatterWhose Eyes Are You Right In?The Search for the Doctrine of Grace Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Now, before you get the idea that this teaching is a covert fundraising effort, know that this teaching is for you, for your benefit, and for you to know that the Creator has your good in mind when he instructs you to give, what you should give and to whom you should give.Rabbi Steve Berkson exhorts us that all obedience brings blessing.

To continue showing us where endurance is talked about, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Luke 21 where in verse 19 we see Yeshua telling His disciples that they will “possess your lives by your endurance!” Then Rabbi Steve moves into “how do we endure?” Taking us to Matthew 23 he explains the Parable of the Sower from the perspective of endurance.In this teaching Rabbi Steve begins the next section of James 1:12, ‘When He Has Been Proved’.

Covenant Community 101: Endure and Receive the Crown of Life - Part 4 “Why Endure”

Continuing in the theme of “Why Endure?”, Rabbi Steve Berkson ponders if a human being can live without limitations. If we can do all things through Messiah who strengthens us, where are the limitations? Who imposed them?Rabbi Steve takes us first to James 5 where we see the duty we have been given to “establish your heart” in order to patiently endure and wait for the plan of Yahweh to play out. In James 1 we see that the writer has completely lost his mind when he says to “count it all joy when you fall into various trials”. How can anyone do that? But going on he clarifies by saying that you should know that the proving of your belief works endurance. So, it is the trial that gives opportunity to show Yahweh where you stand, and endure even though you may be mistreated unfairly or unjustly.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlCC101: Discovering Your Identity Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Covenant Community 101: Endure and Receive the Crown of Life - Part 3 “Why Endure”

Yeshua said to his disciples, “But he who shall have endured to the end shall be saved.” What? So, saying the “sinner’s prayer” or taking the “Romans Road”, isn’t that how “salvation” is achieved? What does Yeshua mean by “endured to the end”? What end? Endure what?Rabbi Steve Berkson clarifies what it means to have endurance in regards to your faith.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlAre You Saved?Cling, Cleave, Hold FastLearn and Teach the Torah Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Who is the person that will receive the “Crown of Life”? What does he/she look like? Continuing on the idea of “Blessed is the Man”, as it says in James (Ya’akov) 1:12, Rabbi Steve Berkson begins by having us look into Psalm 94 where we see that discipline connected to instruction in Torah is a part of the process of receiving the Crown of Life.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlThe Heart of the MatterThe Fear of YahwehThe Search for the Doctrine of GraceAre You Listening?

There is a day of judgment coming. Are you ready to stand before the Judge of all? According to what will you be judged? What are “the Books” that will be opened at the Judgment? What kind of people should we be knowing that this event is just ahead of us?Rabbi Steve Berkson asks the question, “Are You Listening?” He takes us to Deuteronomy chapter 4 to show the example of Moses exhorting the people just before they go into the Promised Land saying “And now, O Yisra’ĕl, listen to the laws and the right-rulings which I am teaching you to do, so that you live, and shall go in and possess the land which יהוה Elohim of your fathers is giving you.”Excerpt From: Copyright 2012 by ISR. “The Scriptures 1998.” iBooks.

Covenant Community 101: Shabbat - Part 3 “Conclusion”

Where do we see in the scriptures examples of what to do or not do on Shabbat? Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us into some to the fine points regarding our behavior on Shabbat. He also gives us his favorite two verses that can be used to make a decision on anything that you may or may not do on Shabbat.Is Isaiah 58 only referring to Yom Kippur? Rabbi Steve gives us his thoughts. How about Colossians 2:16–those who would judge you regarding the Sabbath? Rabbi Steve clarifies what this passage is referring to.

Do you know and understand Shabbat (Sabbath)? Does Shabbat really apply to the people of today? Is Shabbat just “that Jewish thing?” When the word ‘forever’ or ‘perpetual’ is attached to Shabbat, does it really mean to the end of time and beyond? Rabbi Steve Berkson wants to start this multi-part teaching about this most critical observance by helping you find your motivation for keeping the Shabbat. Without the proper understanding of why, just knowing the mechanics really won’t take you very far.Related Teachings can be found here, http://mtoi.org/learn_with_us/learn_with_us.shtmlCC101: Discovering Your IdentityInfocus - The Law of First MentionCC101: The Appointed Times of Yahweh Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

With the absence of division, unity is revealed. This teaching focuses on how we should treat each other as the Body of Messiah. Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us first to Matthew 5:43 where we see Yeshua teaching to love not only each other, but also those who may be considered an enemy in some way, blessing those who curse and doing good to those who would spitefully use us.

You will learn through the writings of the apostles that they knew and understood the restoration of the two houses. Is favor, or grace, merited or unmerited, since it’s not by works? If it’s merited, by whom?What is the “many-sided wisdom of God”?How do we “put on Messiah” as Paul said in Galatians 3:27?What does it take to really be a disciple of Yeshua?What can you tell those who would question your Torah observance?Rabbi Steve addresses these and more topics in this brilliant conclusion to an extremely important subject.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

What is the “righteousness revealed” of which the prophet Isaiah spoke? (Isa 56). Who is the foreigner who has attached himself to Yahweh? What is the “eunuch” who calls himself a dry tree? Can you fully understand the writings of the Apostles (New Testament) without understanding the Tanak (Old Testament)?If the Jewish people have been rejected and replaced, why did Yeshua say, “deliverance is of the Yehuḏim.”? (John 4:22) Does this have anything to do with Zechariah 8:23?Rabbi Steve Berkson continues to connect the dots between the words of the prophets and the words of Yeshua and the Apostles, helping us to see a clearer picture of the purpose of the Father in sending His Son, Messiah Yeshua, and how it relates to who we are, discovering our identity.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

That He was to come from the womb of a woman at precisely the right time for a specific purpose? What was that purpose? What does it have to do with your identity?What do the heavens (celestial bodies) and the earth have to do with the promises Yahweh made concerning the Jewish people?

Ever wondered what it would be like to be a prophet? Consider the prophet Hoshea (Hosea). He was told to marry a promiscuous woman, Gomer, so that Yahweh could make a visual point to his people.Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us through the Book of Hosea to show us that even though His people did shamefully by pursuing their own pleasures by adapting themselves to other deities He would still not forget the promises He made to Abraham and his offspring; to make them a mighty nation and a blessing to all nations.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

“Whose House Are We Building?” The Book of Haggai

When the people of the tribe of Judah began to return from the exile in Babylon they were discouraged from rebuilding the temple of Yahweh by the taunts and threats of their surrounding opponents. Instead they worked on their own houses, being concerned with their own affairs and neglecting the worship that was due their Elohim. Then comes the word of Elohim through the prophet Haggai letting them know that Yahweh was aware of what they were doing and encouraging them, commanding them, to get back to work on the temple and resume the worship that is due Him.Rabbi Tom Mitchell takes us through the book of the prophet Haggai.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Covenant Community 101: Discovering Your Identity - Part 5

In Rabbi Steve Berkson’s last teaching we learned that the inheritance, of which the larger portion would normally go to the “first-born”, was split between two of the sons of Ya’akov, his adopted son Ephrayim and his son Yehuda. Yehuda would receive the authority aspect of the inheritance and Ephrayim would receive the rest. Because of this split of the inheritance we see the birth of the Two House scenario, Israel and Yehuda (Judah) that continues to this day.In this teaching Rabbi Steve unpacks the statement given in 1 Kings 12 by Yahweh through His prophet, “This matter is of me.”, speaking of the split of the kingdom of Israel.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Covenant Community 101: Discovering Your Identity - Part 4

In the last teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson showed us the man called Avraham (or Abraham) who was chosen by Yahweh to enter into a covenant which included certain admonishments and promises. In this lesson we will see this covenant handed down to Avraham’s children, Isaac and Jacob (Genesis 22); and ultimately to all who join themselves to the Creator of all, through Messiah Yeshua, then becoming seed of Avraham. Then Rabbi Steve jumps ahead to where Joseph brings his sons, Ephrayim and Manasseh, to his father Israel for the blessing of the patriarch of the family. Israel then adopts the two youths as his own, bringing them directly into the covenant that has been handed down through the family. We will begin to learn the meaning of the concept of ‘breaking forth’ and ‘filling the earth’. Then, from that, making the connection to the apostle Paul’s writings to the Romans as he tells them how hardness in part has affected the Jews until the ‘fulness of the Gentiles’ has been completed. (Romans 11:25)Rabbi Steve helps us to see how the whole Word of God is wonderfully connected. Topics covered in this teaching: Why wasn’t the right/privilege of the first-born always given to the physical first-born? What is the “inheritance” that was given to the first-born? What is really meant by “The sceptre shall not turn aside from Yehuḏah, nor an Inscriber from between his feet, until Shiloh comes, and to Him is the obedience of peoples.”?

Do you need to send your DNA to be tested to discover your identity? Not if you’ve become something other than what you were born. The apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthians (2 Cori 5:17) “Therefore, if anyone is in Messiah, he is a renewed creature – the old matters have passed away, see, all matters have become renewed!” Also in Galatians 3:29 “And if you are of Messiah, then you are seed of Aḇraham, and heirs according to promise.” Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to the place in The Scriptures where this change in identity began and how it happened, as well as promises given – to the man called Avram (Gen 12).

Some say that Yeshua of Nazareth cannot be The Messiah because in His lineage there is a Moabite, Ruth the Moabitess.

Rabbi Steve Berkson delivers a blistering blow to this argument and at the same time teaches us about understanding our identity.What is a “stranger”?

The Heart of the Matter - Part 64 - The Conclusion

In this final teaching of The Heart of the Matter series, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings a dynamic conclusion by wonderfully tying together all 64 parts. In this teaching Rabbi Steve goes through Ya’akov (James) 4 examining what this teacher/leader of the twelve tribes of Israel felt was critical to their individual growth and the growth of the Body of Messiah.What is the “wants/needs disconnect”? What is the first step in submitting to Yahweh and His anointed/appointed ones? Because Yeshua said there is no one ‘good’ except The Father, should we use the term ‘good’, ever? How does that relate to “call no man Rabbi” or “father”?When applying the scripture to our lives there are two questions to ask ourselves, “What does this look like?” and “Am I actually doing it?”What does it mean to love Him with all your heart? What does it mean to lay the Word up in your heart? What does it mean to be tested to prove what is in your heart? What does it mean to serve Him with all your heart?This teaching is one you will want to revisit again and again, because if the heart is right, you’ll want to figure out the rest of it. The heart is the center point of everything you do.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

The Heart of the Matter - Part 63 - Hebrews & James

Completing the Book of Hebrews, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Hebrews 13:7 where he once again points out the author’s emphasis on the need for us to be lead by one who is anointed and appointed; one who is leading by example. We must be careful of those teachers who bring “various and strange teachings” which do not benefit anyone, but rather, toss the hearers around like a ball on the ocean.Then we go into the letter from James (Ya’akov) which is intended for the twelve tribes and those who would be grafted in. How can you be joyful in a trial? How do you know if you are going through a trial? What does the term ‘trial’ mean? How do you get wisdom? What does “double-minded” mean? Does HaSatan (the devil) cause all bad things to happen to you? Does YHVH ever change? This teaching is packed with amazing insight, knowledge and wisdom from the Holy Spirit through Rabbi Steve.

The result of following this recipe for success gives the doer something that most of this world does not have which is hope.

The Heart of the Matter - Part 61 - Hebrews

Many feel that the book of Hebrews is too difficult to understand. Biblical scholars debate and are unsure as to who is the author of this significant letter to the chosen people of the Creator. What exactly do you know about Messiah Yeshua? Have you “closely considered” Him and what it is that He accomplished in His first coming? What is the sure sign that you’ve discovered a true teacher/instructor for your walk? Why is the little word ‘if’ so significant? What is ‘rebellion’ and why is understanding it so important to us? Have you ever wondered about the term “deceivableness of sin”? Did you even know that term existed? How are you at ‘role-playing”?In this lesson, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to chapter three as he gives us perspective as to what was going on with our First-Century brothers and sisters at the time this letter was written and starts us on this leg of our journey in understanding The Heart of the Matter.

Rabbi Steve shows how Paul was admonishing his followers to go ‘beyond the mechanics’ of Torah observance to an obedience from the heart, speaking and doing in the name of the Master Yeshua, with thankfulness to Elohim the Father through Him.This teaching is full of practical life application that can help you no matter where in your walk of being Torah observance you may be.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Then we will experience the peace, shalom, that is beyond our human understanding, because it’s the peace that can only come from Him. He says that again in verse 9, which again is ‘discipleship language’, as He says to practice these things and the Elohim of peace shall be with you.

With that, we are to walk in obedience to Torah, imitating Elohim (5:1). What does it mean to be “subject to each other”? (vs 21) Why did the apostle Paul start talking about husbands and wives, children and parents, servants and masters? Is there more to understanding chapters 5 and 6 than what you have been taught previously? What does “do not provoke your children” mean?

Being a follower of Yeshua according to His own words is to no longer walk in darkness but possess the light of life (John 8:12).

The Heart of the Matter - Part 54 - Ephesians

Now that Rabbi Steve Berkson has thoroughly taught us what the Apostle Paul was writing to the Ephesians in chapter two, he now leads us into understanding chapter three; the mystery or secret of what Messiah Yeshua accomplished through His death, burial and resurrection - that the nations (Gentiles, those who are outside) now have a place among those who are the chosen ones according to the flesh, Israel.Then Rabbi Steve moves us into chapter four where a problem with authority is addressed. Submitting to the right leadership, anointed and appointed, is the only way we as the body of Messiah are going to learn to love each other and come together in unity and be one. Existing today are the five ministries as listed in Ephesians 4:11, emissaries (apostles), prophets, evangelists, shepherds and teachers. These exist today. We must pray to the Father that our eyes are opened to recognize who these people are in order to properly learn for the sake of the Kingdom of Elohim.

The Heart of the Matter - Part 52 - Ephesians

Starting in the letter to the Ephesians Rabbi Steve Berkson points us to the fact that the Apostle Paul was trying to help the believers in Ephesus that even with what Messiah Yeshua accomplished in His death, burial and resurrection there is still an “expectation” to abide by the covenant with the Creator that was laid out in Exodus chapter 19, (paraphrasing) “If you diligently follow my words, I will take you as my people and bless you more than you can know.” Rabbi Steve helps us to understand that we don’t have to “understand” every thing that we are required to do, but that in the doing we will begin to understand. We should have an attitude like Abraham in that whatever YHVH told him to do, even to the sacrificing of his son, he said, “Here Am I!” In Hebrew, hineni. This is what Rabbi Steve calls, “a ‘Trusting’ Obedience.” In this teaching Rabbi Steve explains thoroughly the famous passage found in chapter 2 and verses 8-10. Throughout this teaching the word grace is defined and explained as to whether it is “unmerited favor” or “merited favor”. Are we really saved (delivered) by unmerited favor? What are the “good works” that were prepared beforehand? What is “the Torah of the commands in dogma”? Rabbi Steve brings clarity to these seemingly unclear and difficult sayings of Paul.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

The Heart of the Matter - Part 51 - 1 Corinthians

What we find in this letter from the Apostle Paul to the believers in Corinth is that strife had risen up among the assembly over which teacher was better than the other and which teacher someone followed, turning it into a status issue. If Paul were here today and observed the strife and division among some of us, would he be wondering why things haven’t changed in the last 2,000 years? Would he need to be committed and put in a ‘rubber room’? What Paul had to address was that the people were boasting in men and how they may have arrived in some understanding that they judged others not to have. This kind of attitude is a condition of the heart and is not acceptable in the body of Messiah. If there is any boasting to be done, Paul says boast in YHVH/Yeshua.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

The Heart of the Matter - Part 50 - Romans

Continuing in the Apostle Paul’s letter to those of The Way in Rome (Romans), chapter 10, Rabbi Steve Berkson poses the question that comes out of verse 4 – are you doing what you’re doing just to look righteous to others, or are you doing it to look like Messiah Yeshua? In this chapter we see Paul quoting Moses from Deuteronomy chapter 30, who is talking to the people about the Torah, but symbolically speaking of Messiah. When someone says, “I’m saved!”, what does that mean? Is it a status? a state of being? Hear what Rabbi Steve has to say about that. Moving into chapter 5 of Romans, Rabbi Steve takes us on a journey of understanding how we should feel honored and blessed when we go through “pressures”, which produce endurance, which produces the approval of YHVH.Then, going into the second letter from Peter (2 Peter) chapter 1, Rabbi Steve teaches us the steps that we should take to ensure that we will never fall from our faith.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

There’s more ‘heart’ to be discovered in the letter to the Romans as Rabbi Steve Berkson continues in chapters 8 and 10, breaking down verse by verse what the apostle Paul was communicating to the set-apart ones living in Rome at that time. Through Rabbi Steve’s teaching we find that Paul was not teaching against Torah observance, but rather, by living according to the Torah we become pleasing to the Father, who has adopted those who are obedient and has made them heirs to the riches that cannot be compared to anything in this present world.Questions:• Can you be led by the Spirit of Elohim through those who are anointed and appointed leaders and teachers? • Will you argue or will you do whatever you’re instructed to do; even if you don’t understand now? • How do you ‘vet’ or choose those to whom you should be listening?• What will we be doing for a thousand years in the Father’s kingdom?Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

The Heart of the Matter - Part 48 - Romans

Continuing in the letter that the Apostle Paul wrote to the faithful in Rome, Rabbi Steve Berkson again emphasizes that to understand what Paul was trying to say in this letter, context is crucial. In chapter 6, again we see the contrasting of righteousness vs unrighteousness. We see how even the believers of that time were struggling to understand the purpose of Messiah Yeshua’s death and resurrection and how it relates to them.In chapter 7 we will hear about Paul’s personal struggle with walking in death and walking in the new life that Messiah Yeshua provided.As we move into chapter 8 Paul begins to reveal the light at the end of the tunnel – that there is no more condemnation to those whose desire it is to walk according to the spirit; by the words that Messiah Yeshua spoke which is Torah given by His Father. (John 6:63)Bottom line – The Apostle Paul did not teach that the Torah is now done away with but that the penalty that comes from ‘law of sin and death’ has been abolished by the work of redemption through Messiah Yeshua.

The Heart of the Matter - Part 47 - Romans

Rabbi Steve Berkson moves us into chapter 2 of the letter that the Apostle Paul wrote to the faithful in Rome (Romans 2). In part 47 of The Heart of the Matter Rabbi Steve hopes to give clarity to these passages that are typically taken out of context and misunderstood. The theme in Romans chapter 2 that we will see is ‘righteousness verses unrighteousness’ and how we are judged as being one or the other. We will also see the terms ‘circumcision’ and ‘uncircumcision’ and how they could be interpreted as those who are born into the covenant through the bloodline (Jews) and those who choose to enter into covenant but are not of the bloodline (Greeks, or everyone else).We will see that the Apostle Paul actually taught ‘Torah Observance’ (Rom 2:13) and how the heart being filled with faith and love for the Creator seeks to please Him by doing the “good works” – faith-based works.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Understanding the Ruach/Spirit - Part 3

Rabbi Steve Berkson continues where we left off in part two on the subject of The Spirit of haSatan vs The Spirit of Elohim as we move into part three. Rabbi Berkson begins in 1 John 5:18-19 where we learn about guarding ourselves and not allowing the “wicked one” to gain a foothold in our lives. We see a definition of the Hebrew phrases ‘Yetzer haRa’ or ‘evil inclination’ and ‘Yetzer haTov’ which is the ‘good inclination’. Then, just as we are about to go to Revelation 12, Rabbi Berkson takes us on a “Rabbi Trail” about the ‘Victim Mentality’ which is devastating to success in walking the path that leads to reward and life.In this lesson Rabbi Berkson begins to define the meaning of Ruach haKodesh (Holy Spirit) taking us to Isaiah 55:6-9 where it is written that the ways and thoughts of YHVH are higher than ours.We will learn what ‘staying in Him (Messiah Yeshua)’ means as Rabbi Berkson teaches from 1 John 3:1-10. John is repeating his writing in the Gospel of John chapter 15 where Yeshua taught His disciples about the vine and the branches.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

In part 2 of this series, Rabbi Steve Berkson defines an aspect of ruach/spirit as ‘Intrinsic Nature’ or the ‘Breath of Life’ that has been breathed into humans that separates us from all the rest of the living things that are created.

Amazingly there are quite a few similarities to be discovered as we go into some definitions of words and phrases to be found in the Hebrew and Greek languages, such as, lightnings, thunder, sound, noise, fire, etc. Also, as Jewish sources suggest, the giving of the Torah on Mt.

Baptism of Fire - Part 3

Rabbi Steve Berkson begins Part 3 of this teaching in Leviticus 26:23 where he shows us that the Baptism of Fire has many facets such as being “instructed” of YHVH through “punishment” for disobedience and breaking His Covenant. Then, we see discipleship terminology as we go to Matthew 11:25-30 and read Yeshua’s words, verse 29, “Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am meek and humble in heart, and you shall find rest for your beings. For My yoke is gentle and My burden is light.” This verse is linked back to Leviticus as YHVH told those of that time that He has broken the bars of their yoke (of Egypt) and made them walk upright (taking on His Yoke); the yoke symbolizes learning and being in submission to the Torah of YHVH which gives us rest which Rabbi Steve links to Jeremiah 6:16, Thus said יהוה, “Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; and find rest for yourselves.”Rabbi Berkson then teaches us another facet of the Baptism of Fire which is the persecution we will face as we walk in Torah-Observance. Possibly, we may need to detach from things or others, even as close as our own hand or foot (Matt 18:8), so that we can walk unimpeded spiritually.Then, Rabbi Berkson takes us to the writings of the Apostle Shaul (Paul) to the Corinthians (1 Corinthians 3) as the Apostle explains to his congregation that each one builds upon the foundation, which is Messiah Yeshua, using various materials. Those materials may or may not make it through the Baptism of Fire which, as Rabbi Berkson points out, is why it’s so important for us to submit to a chosen and appointed authority, in discipleship, so that they can instruct us as to what materials we should build with that will pass through the fire to the other side.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Baptism of Fire - Part 2

In the second part of Baptism of Fire Rabbi Steve Berkson starts in 1 Peter 4:12, “Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you”, teaching us that we who are followers of Messiah Yeshua will be persecuted because we identify with Him. These fiery trials will test us or prove us as we follow Yeshua in the immersion of water and the immersion of the Ruach haKodesh.

Baptism of Fire - Part 1

In the Gospel of Matthew 3:11 we read the words of John the Baptist saying, “I indeed immerse you in water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to bear. He shall immerse you in the Set-apart Spirit and fire.” What do you know about the Baptism of Fire. Is that what happened to those in Acts 2?

Who Will Dwell? - Rabbi Tom Mitchell

Psalm 15 gives us a wonderful description of the kind of person that YHVH desires to live with forever.

The Heart of the Matter - Part 39 - Ezekiel

Rabbi Steve Berkson concludes the book of the Prophet Ezekiel in part 39 of The Heart of the Matter series. In chapter 20 we see YHWH continuing the chastise the leaders of Judea for allowing their hearts to turn to idolatry. YHWH reminds them that He is theirElohim and that they need no other. He gave them His Torah so that they would live and not die, but the disobedience continued. As YHWH sees it, disobedience is equal to rebellion which is equal to idolatry. Rabbi Berkson explains verse 25, which by some hasbeen misunderstood, that says, “And I also gave them up to laws that were not good, and right-rulings by which they would not live.” Chapter 36 is full of wonderful promises of finally entering the Age to Come as YHWH will gather Israel, replace our stony heartswith hearts of flesh and sprinkle clean water on us. We also learn that we will be judged according to our deeds (works). We will learn that we can choose to jump out of His hand and no longer be under His protection. In chapter 44, the vision Ezekiel was givenfor the coming temple, YHWH declares that no foreigner that is not circumcised in heart and body will be allowed in that temple. Rabbi Berkson also teaches about how the Levitical Priesthood has not been eliminated but will once again do service in the temple to come.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

The Heart of the Matter - Part 38 - Ezekiel

Continuing in the book of the Prophet Ezekiel, chapter 18, Rabbi Steve Berkson leads us to understand that Israel was using an idiom at that time, “The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are blunted”. This idiom meant that children could receive condemnation because of the evil their parents had done. But YHVH corrected them by saying, “you shall no longer use this proverb in Yisra’ĕl. See, all beings are Mine, the being of the father as well as the being of the son is Mine. The being that is sinning shall die.” So what we learn is that no one can blame another for their own evil choices. We all will stand before the Almighty Judge on our own for what we have done in this life.We will learn the meaning of the Hebrew word, nephesh. We will see a to-do list for life and how YHVH gives us a preview of how He will judge all mankind. Then, Rabbi Berkson ties Ezekiel 18 to Yeshua’s words in Matthew 25 in which Yeshua speaks of Himself as the King that will come and will gather all the nations before Him and separate them one from another as a shepherd separates his sheep from the goats.

Leaving Egypt: Passing Through the Waters

At the start of the 2016 Feast of Passover and Unleavened Bread, hosted by MTOI, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings a refreshing perspective on the Exodus of the Hebrews from Egypt. Trying to get into the minds of those ancient people having been in slavery and oppression for many years, Rabbi Steve asks the questions that they may have asked when Mosheh arrived on the scene with a message from their Elohim, the Creator of All, that they were about to be set free and leave that place for a land that had been promised long ago to their ancestor Abraham. In this teaching Rabbi Steve focuses on the escape of the chosen people from the pursuing Egyptians by marching through the waters of the sea and how this great event is still relevant to us today as we go through the mikvah process; burying the old man and becoming a new man through the death, burial and resurrection of Messiah Yeshua.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

In chapter 2 the prophet Ezekiel was told to speak "Thus says YHWH" to the people no matter who listened or who didn't listen and to not be rebellious as they were. Then, in chapter 3, Ezekiel was given a scroll to eat which was the Word of YHWH and it was as sweet as honey.

In One Accord - Rabbi Tom Mitchell

Throughout the Torah, the Prophets and in the writings of the Apostles a cry goes out from the heart of Elohim for unity among His people. Until the time when Messiah returns, the people who claim to carry the name of YHWH must endeavor to live in unity and peaceably with all of their brothers and sisters. They must not be divided but be knitted together in the same mind and Spirit. Rabbi Tom Mitchell brings this timely message to us so that we can understand what endeavoring for unity looks like.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

The Heart of the Matter - Jeremiah - Part 32

Continuing in the Book of Jeremiah, chapter 11, we see a refresher on the original Covenant made between the Creator and those He selected, who entered into it without even hearing or understanding what the conditions of the contract were, but rather knowing with Whom they were entering it. All of this was to establish the oath which He had made with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Genesis 26:4-5). We then move into chapter 13 where we see the illustrated analogy of the girdle that YHWH had Jeremiah to buy, wear, then expose to the elements so that it would become useless and unable to do what it was intended to do. Israel was to cling, cleave and hold fast to their Creator but did not. They were to support, have faith (emunah) in, their Elohim, but became rebellious and stubborn in their “evil heart”, rendering them, in the words of YHWH, a useless people. In chapter 14 we see how the people of Judea were listening to the ones who said they were speaking for YHWH, but were not, to the destruction and exile of both. There is a great danger of speaking for YHWH when He has not spoken.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

The Heart of the Matter - Jeremiah - Part 31

Moving into the ninth and tenth chapters of the writings of the Prophet Jeremiah, Rabbi Steve Berkson helps us to stop to think “I wonder how our Creator feels” about us; how we think, talk and act. Could our Father say about us, “they have not know me” as He did through Jeremiah to the people of that time? Yet, YHWH still puts those people whose hearts are stubborn and rebellious through the process of refining in order to find the remnant of His People who will cling, cleave and hold fast to Him, those with whom He would want to live forever.We continue to see the term, “stubbornness of heart” over and over. Rabbi Steve points out that if we want to fix the problems with our “walk”, we must allow the Holy Spirit to search our hearts and find the stubbornness and then eliminate it. Only then will we get to the place where what we want is what the Father desires.In this lesson we will further improve our lexicon by learning the definitions of the words “forsaken”, “discern” and “syncretism.”At the end of this lesson Rabbi Steve cleverly describes the “Manufacturer’s Reset Button” and how this describes all of us who have chosen to walk in Torah observance through the Spirit of Yeshua Messiah.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

The Heart of the Matter - Jeremiah - Part 30

Rabbi Steve Berkson begins the 30th part of the series “The Heart of the Matter” and the 3rd lesson from the book of the Prophet Jeremiah with a clarification regarding the “sacrificial system” and its relationship to the work of Messiah Yeshua. Many misunderstand this subject due to various erroneous teachings which can be a distraction from the real subject: being obedient is directly connected to living well in all areas of our lives. Then we get to the phrases in Jeremiah 7:24, “incline their ear” and “walked in the counsels” where we learn that it is our responsibility to seek right counsel from godly leaders through the leading of the Holy Spirit and not lean (incline) to our own understanding, in the stubbornness of our own heart, going backward and not forward. We will hear about the things happening in Jeremiah’s day and how the same seems to be today. Rabbi Steve tells us about the process of abomination starting with abhorrent, then to tolerated, then accepted and finally preferred. In the end those who choose to be right according to Torah are persecuted.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

In part 7 of To He Who Overcomes, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues with the subject of ‘Overcoming the World’ by leading us to a better understanding of the parable Yeshua taught about the Sower and the Seed found in Matthew chapter 13. Why are we taught in parables? What did Yeshua mean when He said in verse 9 “He who has ears to hear, let him hear”? Rabbi Berkson then begins a new subject, “Overcoming Evil With Good”, taking us to the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Roman assembly in chapter 12. Are we truly sacrificing our desires to gain the understanding of that “good, well-pleasing and perfect desire of Elohim”? Do we as the Body of Messiah realize that we all have different roles that should work together for the benefit of each other and ultimately for the Kingdom of Elohim? What teachers should we or should we not be listening to?

To He Who Overcomes - Part 6

Rabbi Steve Berkson concludes teaching us about overcoming “Beliefs, Behaviors, Attitudes and Lifestyles.” He begins with taking us to Luke 9:57-62 where we see several men coming to Yeshua expressing a desire to follow Him, but rather, Yeshua makes an example of them as to “those who look back are not fit for the Kingdom of Elohim.” We will hear the word ‘but’ used quite often as those men will give their reasons/excuses for delaying following Yeshua. Rabbi Steve brings us to understand that our “Big Brother is watching us” and watching over us, interceding for us as we walk the path of righteousness. We learn about the ‘Rule of Thirds’ as it applies to how we should seek counsel from those who are more experienced than we in our relationship with the Father and Son. Rabbi Steve teaches us the common way that people try to rationalize and justify what they want to do by pulling together a coalition of their peers. Then, Rabbi Steve moves into the subject of overcoming the world and takes us in scripture to 1 John 5:1-5 and the Epistle of James chapters 1 and 2. Rabbi Steve exhorts us to not let anybody “shake your tree” when comes to being Torah Observant as having belief/faith has to be coupled with being obedience; “faith without works is dead…”Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

No Other Name – Part 9 (Finale)

Rabbi Steve Berkson concludes the series “No Other Name” beginning in Deuteronomy 10 touching on the seriousness of “swearing by the name of YHWH” and whether we should or not, referencing Yeshua’s words in Matthew 5. Also, how the people who carry the name of YHWH have a purpose in this world, to bring honor to His name (identity, reputation) and to be a light to the nations. In Deuteronomy 28 Steve brings out how disobedience to the Torah is the same as bringing dishonor to the name of YHWH. Then ending this lesson with a rapid fire of scripture we get a clarification of the words “according to” found in Psalm 7:17 to actually mean “because of.” Finally concluding with Acts 4, where this teaching began, with a new, deeper understanding of “No Other Name.”Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Beware False Prophets - Identifying the Anti-Messiah

International conspiracy, global domination, lies, deception, extortion - sounds like a James Bond movie, doesn't it? Actually, it's in the pages of the Scriptures as they refer to the End of Days that could be quickly upon us all. No one can or will be excluded from the events that have been prophesied to happen. A world leader is coming who will draw everyone to him so that, if it were possible, even the very elect would be deceived. He is infamously known as "The Anti-Christ (or Anti-Messiah)." Rabbi Steve Berkson lays out very clearly in this teaching the how, what, and why to being able to recognize this one who will be the most evil person of all time and, just like a James Bond movie, there is a twist at the end.
