In Romans 2:28, the Apostle Paul said: Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. What does this mean?Does it mean that the law is now of no use to us? Does it mean that believing in the Messiah alone without obedience  still makes us righteous? Or are we free to live in sin because "Jesus is our righteousness?"This episode looks at what it means to be justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

Justified By Faith Without The Deeds Of The Law: What Does This Mean?

Do we have free will, or do we have a fate that we just change? In this episode, we look at the question of free will from a scriptural perspective. Before you go, we must know that he created the wicked for the day of evil:Pro_16:4  YAHUAH hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.These are the vessels of wrath:Rom 9:22  What if YAHUAH, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: And so an important thing to note about him is that he hardens whom he will, so as to achieve his will.Rom 9:18  Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.So there are exceptions whose free will are taken away from them and their hearts will be hardened. This is YAHUAH'S prerogative as the master potter:Rom 9:19-21  Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?  Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against YAHUAH? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?  Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?So for the rest of us who have access to his mercy, do we have free will?We use precept upon precept, line upon line, here a little, there a little to unravel the mystery. 

Do We Have Free Will?

Who are the descendants of Esau today? Where is Edom today? These are commonly asked questions and often forms the basis for heated debates.However, the answer is really simple as the scriptures make it plain that he will be bare (plain), even though he is not. Sounds complicated? Well, listen this podcast as we reveal who the descendants of Esau are today.

Does God Love Sinners?Does the Most High love the sinners and hate the sin as Christians claim? This episode looks into the claim by Christians that their God loves the sinners. He only hates the sins that they commit, so as long as you are a sinner, "God" loves you.This podcast looks at this claim as it pertains to the Aluahym of the Bible and see what scriptures have to say about it. Subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQLe8g4j7G3imPuepFSVgNQ Check out our website at http://justaword.org. Follow us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/justaword1 Follow us on Twitter at https://www.twitter.com/justaword11 Follow us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/justawordradio

Does God Love Sinners?

Is the Book of Enoch Authentic?The religion of Christianity has dominated the world and dominated what most believers accept as truth. When one comes into the understanding of its many, many shortcomings, one starts to question the validity of much of their claims.We here at Just a Word have dug into many of their teachings and found almost all to be wanting. We have included those in a category on our website called Christian Errors. By the way, this can be accessed through http://justaword.org/christian-error/.So since we found so many things wrong, one of them is that we should only use 66 books. This forms the basis of what we have in this podcast as we look at the authenticity of the book of Enoch.We will use a simple means of proving whether or not the book of Enoch is authentic. This we will do by looking at the 10 divisions of the times of the earth found in Enoch chapter 93.

Is the Book of Enoch Authentic?

The earnest of our inheritance. We take a look at Ephesians 1:13-14, a verse that most people brush over as they read. We look at a word that makes a big, big difference to our understanding, which has great impact onus understanding our salvation and redemprion. 

The Earnest of Our Inheritance

How to Read the Bible and Grow in Understanding?This is a response to a question by one of our group members who sent this message:"Quick question.  I struggle with  what to passage to read  in the mornings.  I'm reading  the book of John right now. I started in Genesis and jumped over  to John as I was looking  for Scriptures that would minister to me in this  beginning journey.  I guess we were trained to feel something when we reading  so now I feel so empty.   I'm all  over the place.  Are there specific scriptures you can recommend? Thank you."She has recently come out of Christianity, understanding that the Bible is not about a religion, but about a nation and she is a member of that nation. This podcast looks to not only respond to her question, but also to give anyone else out there an understanding of how to read the Bible and grow daily in understanding. This is not my opinion, but actually what the scriptures say we should do. How do I read the Bible?Of course, there is no replacement for fearing YAHUAH and keeping his commandments and walking in obedience to the Messiah. Combine all, and you will grow quickly in wisdom, knowledge and understanding.Recommended Download:e-Sword: Free Bible Study for the PCwww.e-sword.net 

How to Read the Bible and Grow in Understanding

Precept upon precept: How to understand the Bible.In today's episode we look at how to properly interpret scripture.  When we speak of scriptural truth or biblical truth, we are often met with the question, how do you know you have the truth?  Indeed, everyone claims to have the truth, don't we? iThis includes the over 40,000 Christian denominations. What if I tell you that there is only one way to arrive at truth in the scriptures?Isa 28:9  Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.  Isa 28:10  For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little: If we realize how the scriptures are written, then we will get the understanding. The scriptures are written so as to be revealed spiritually to those who seek. That means one cannot just pick up the scriptures and study to get the understanding.Neither can one get the understanding unless the Most High allows us to. Then we must know that it is not written serially (in order) like a story book. It is written like a puzzle, and parts have to be fitted together. When we fit the pieces together,  then we get to Bible truth. Otherwise what we will be doing is taking a verse and then giving our own private interpretation, and of course we:2Pe_1:20  Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.So the importance of precepts: matching scriptures here, to scriptures there, is what we look at in this episode.  When we do so, we will be surprised at what we learn! 

Precept Upon Precept: How to Understand the Bible

Welcome to Just a Word Radio. In this episode, we welcome you and also look at the 3 basic principles upon which we base our teachings. 

Welcome to Just a Word Radio

In Romans 11:25, we have a very misunderstood, yet critical verse: Rom 11:25  For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.It is very critical as it foretells what will happen in the end time to Israel and the Gentiles. Yet, not many really dig to see who are true Israel. Are they those Jew-ish people who live in the place called Israel today? Aren't there people claiming that these are not the true Jews? What if these claims are right and these people are not the true Israel who were blinded?What if these Jewish people were those who blinded the true Israelites: as it is written:Rom_10:19  But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.So today we put Romans 11:25 to the test to see what it really means. 

Blindness in Part Has Happened to Israel (Romans 11:25) - What Does This Really Mean?

I grew up hearing about the God of the whole world.  Now we are hearing from groups such as the Hebrew Israelites , that the Most High creator is the God of Israel only.Now that sure doesn't sound right now, does it? How could the creator of all mankind just be the God of only one nation of people? Why then would he bother to create the rest?Today, we look at this question, the god of Israel or the God of the world? We put it to the scriptural test to see who is right. Disclaimer: We apologize for using the word God, as the Most High is not God or a god. However, without using that  name, this podcast would not show up in searches and create interest unless we use that title. His name is YAHUAH TSABA'OTH (of hosts). 

God of Israel or God of the World

There is a common claim among our Hebrew Israelite brothers, that the Gentiles Sha'ul (Paul) went to in the New Testament were ONLY Hellenised Israelites. These are descendants of the 10 northern tribes who were living among the nations. Their point is that no other gentiles (heathen) can be saved: only those who are Israelites in the flesh who had been sent into exile. In this podcast, we look at this claim to try and decipher if this is so. PREVIOUS Who Will Be Saved?

Are Scattered Israelites the Only Gentiles That Can Be Saved? - Who Will Be Saved Part 3

WHO WILL BE SAVED? (PART 2) In this part 2, we look at the extreme opposite of that by looking at the question: can Edomites be saved? Of course, Edom refers to Esau, so Edomites are the descendants of Esau. In part 1, we looked at the question of whether it will be Israelites alone (the physical descendants of Jacob) who will be saved. CAN EDOMITES BE SAVED? Ask this question among Hebrew Israelites, almost all will say no: Esau is doomed, can find no forgiveness. This is because of the prophecies of Ovadyahu, more specifically, this verse: Obadiah 1:18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for YAHUAH hath spoken it. MERCY AND FAVOUR FOR A CONDEMNED NATION Unfortunately, we ignore other verses in the Bible that tell us even more than that verse in Ovadyahu. They tell us of his mercy and favour, even to the nation that has been condemned. Why do we never hear the Hebrew Israelites use these verses below? Jer 18:7 — Jer 18:10 At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it; If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them. And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it; If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them. Those verses in Yirmeyahu 18 speak volumes. PROVISION FOR STRANGERS TO JOIN THEMSELVES TO ISRAEL In part 1, we looked in detail at the provisions made for strangers to join themselves to Israel and even receive inheritance among the tribe in which they sojourn. This was necessary that we continue to do, as it is all over the Tanakh (Old Testament), but largely forgotten. Isa 56:6 — Isa 56:8 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to YAHUAH, to serve him, and to love the name of YAHUAH, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant; Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people. YAHUAH ELOHIYM which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him. PRACTICAL EXAMPLES OF MERCY TO THE CONDEMNED Next, we go into practical examples found in the Bible. We looked at two of them: the people of Ninevah in the story of Jonah and Rahab the Harlot from Jericho. RELATED Who Will Be Saved? Israelites Only?

Can Edomites Be Saved? Who Will Be Saved Part 2

Who will be saved? If you ask most persons who have read the Bible, he will most likely either say Christians will be saved or anyone can be saved. If you ask a Hebrew Israelite however, you are most likely to hear that only Israelites, descendants of the 12 tribes of Israel can be saved. As one who subscribes to no religion or religious order, and one who has no doubt he is an Israelite in the flesh, I will seek to dig into this matter to see who is right. I have long discovered the danger of adding a label to one's self and subscribing to a modern religious order. As such I have also realized that the whole truth is not in any denomination. Therefore this is the first part of a series that looks to dig up the truth as to who can be saved. This first episode in the series will focus on the Tanakh (old testament. This is because YAHUAH does nothing before first revealing it to his servants the prophets: those prophets who spake thus says YAHUAH. Amo 3:7 Surely YAHUAH ELOHIYM will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. Additionally, the Tankah (scripture) was given for our learning and correction: 2Ti 3:16-17 All scripture is given by inspiration of YAHUAH, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of ELOHIYM may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. As a result, no teaching that we can conclude from the new testament can overrule prophecies and writings of the old testament. So listen this episode to see what scripture says about who can be saved.

Who Will Be Saved? Israelites Only?

In this episode, we look at the one word that tells us what Christianity is all about. This one word explains the spirit that brought about the founding of the religion while at the same time explains why the world holds so dearly to it today. We will see how perfectly it fits Ecclesiastes 1:9-11. IT is important that we see the religion for what it truly is, as we are promised an end time delusion if we do not follow truth, but instead choose to follow a lie. This Sha'ul (Paul) called the mystery of iniquity. 2Th 2:7 — 2Th 2:12 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. So we have to know the truth because because if we choose the lie, we will be given a strong delusion where the lie will so look like the truth, that we will be unable to see the lie. We will swear by the lie and nothing can tell us that it is a lie. The only remedy? We MUST SEEK TRUTH! Hence, that is what we do today.
