Egypts first plague was the turning of water into blood. A warning of the final Plague of Passover to come: the Death of the Firstborn.

Yeshua’s first miracle was the turning of water into wine (blood). A beckoning to His future crucifixion on the Passover.

But while Pharaoh's firstborn would die in vain. God’s firstborn would die for the sins of Israel who had His blood on their doorposts.

And with this all: Yeshua has the face of both Mercy and Judgment. Mercy to those with His redemptive blood on their doorposts. Judgment to those who will face Him at the ever-approaching Second Coming.

Would you be among the firstborn of Pharoah, or firstborn of Israel?

New Passover Message!

Episode Notes

Most of us are so familiar with Yeshua's Miracle of turning the water into wine, that we likely have it memorized. For most of us, it's been boiled down to the children's Bible version: Jesus turned the water into wine - the End! But is this really it? The fact that THIS was Yeshua's first miracle is no coincidence. Is there perhaps more to this story than we originally thought? Join Christina as she explores the powerful prophetic call hidden in this first miracle and what God desires to do through you!

Episode Notes

Galatians 4 is by far one of the most frequent proof-texts used to "prove" that Paul abolished the Law of God. After all, in his example of Hagar and Sarah, it seems quite clear that Paul is saying that any attempts by Christians to follow God's Law makes them "children of the slave woman", right? This is what has been taught by many in Christianity for hundreds of years, but does the context support this claim?

Join us we jump into these highly-debated verses and discuss what Paul was really saying in this passage. The answer is so much deeper and more beautiful than often thought.

Episode Notes

A revival is starting. Believers all over the world are getting on fire to walk like Yeshua walked in Spirit and in Truth, keeping the Law of God and operating in the Holy Spirit in power and in love. This revival began in the Book of Acts and whole towns and cities were won to the message of Yeshua because of it.

Man-made traditions and false doctrines have threatened to silence this message of hope through the ages, but God is raising up a new generation who will not be silenced and whose fire will not be quenched. The time is short before the return of Yeshua as King, it's time to return to the blue-print given to us in the Book of Acts - it's time to return to the walk of Yeshua.

Episode Notes

We can win every theological debate and seem religious, but can we win souls?

When we first became believers, most of us were excited to spend time with God and tell everyone we knew about the new life we now have in Jesus. Our chains are gone, we've been set free! Yet as the years have gone by, many of us have become more enamored with knowing "about" God without also continuing to get to KNOW God. While we are to "study ourselves approved" (2 Tim 2:15), some of us have exchanged intimacy with God for head-knowledge, and our relationship with the Father has suffered.

We can win every theological debate, but can we win souls? The only way to walk out the Great Commission, to win the hearts of others for God's Kingdom, is by first surrendering our hearts to the Father. Will you return to your First Love?

Episode Notes

The Gift of Tongues is one of the most controversial Gifts of the Spirit in modern-day Christianity. Why is this? Didn't the Apostle Paul write that the believers in the Early Church operated in the Spiritual Gifts, including the Gift of Tongues?

Respected Pastor, Theologian, and Apologist Paul Washer's answer for this is simple: The gift of tongues that the early believers used in the 1st Century Church no longer exists or is in use today. But is this the case? What SHOULD the Gift of Tongues look like, Biblically?

Join PD and Christina as they delve into what Scripture has to say about this controversial gift of the Holy Spirit, and what this means for believers.

Episode Notes

When Jesus is accused of casting out demons by the "Prince of Demons" (Matt 12), he asks the Pharisees a peculiar question: "Then by who do your sons cast them out?" And much later, we read about the sons of the high priest casting out demons - in the name of Yeshua of all names! But for them, using His name was like a secret word that they thought would give them authority. Instead, the demons overpowered them, leaving them running and naked. True biblical authority is not about believing a certain pronunciation of a name has power, that's called magic. Instead, it's KNOWING the PERSON behind the name of Lord Yeshua. In this video, we talk about casting out demons, Christian authority, and the counterfeit powers.

It's easy to feel betrayed, alone and rejected, like you can't trust anyone. And it's easy to interpret how people have treated you as the gauge of your true value. You've failed God before too, right? So maybe you're just not cut out to be a believer, to be free from your dependencies and sins. They're not that bad anyway, right?

Jesus taught one of the greatest commandments is to love your neighbor as yourself. But what if you don't have any love for yourself? Today, we will discuss the enemy's tactic to keep people away from the beautiful calling God has for them, and reveal the answer Yeshua gives. And this answer will set you free!

Episode Notes

In the New Testament, we read numerous accounts of Jesus and the disciples casting out demons. They seemed to be everywhere! Why don't we see this same amount of demonic activity being cast out today? Is it because there aren't as many demons as back then, or is there another reason?
