I am thinking of ways to give people in the community more ways to generate an income.

Would you be interested in selling electronic pictures you have taken on a TTN-driven community board so that the public can buy it as stock photos?

And do not presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father,’ for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children for Abraham.
Matthew 3:9

"Children for Abraham" from stones has three meanings. 1: Being a child of Abraham is more than just being a genetic descendant and isn't limited to that. 2: God gave Jacob marked sheep from unmarked parents, prophesying the grafting of gentiles into Israel. God can create an Israelite out of anyone. 3: The hard hearts of the Pharisees/Sadducees separated them from Abraham, but Yeshua can restore them.

At the start of the Messianic Era, #yeshua will divide sheep from goats, Jacob's flock from Laban's, and the wheat from the tares. Even when false or ignorant teachers can't tell them apart, like Laban's shepherds, Yeshua knows his own and will call them out to join Israel.

If male headship is limited to the home, then Messiah's headship is limited to the body of believers. (Is this what you really want? Be careful what you wish for.) However, if Messiah's headship extends beyond the body of believers and covers all things, then male headship also extends beyond the home into all societal structures.

SMALL STRAWS by MARSHA BURNS
In all the busyness that surrounds this season, be sure to take opportunities to rest and rejuvenate. You can do that by letting go of all things that are a concern to you, and position yourself in the Holy Spirit where you will find peace. Stay as long as you need to in that place of serenity before you move on. Proverbs 4:7-8 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. Exalt her, and she will promote you; she will bring you honor, when you embrace her.

YHWH kills and brings to life; he brings down to Sheol and raises up. YHWH makes poor and makes rich; he brings low and he exalts.
1 Samuel 2:6-7

People like to say that God never makes anyone suffer, but that's not what the Bible says. God sends both blessing and curse, according to the requirements of his greater plan.

This particular argument could be said against most of things Christians who are pursuing Torah are doing. The ironic thing about it though, is that they are saying it isn't commanded anywhere, but there are numerous examples of those same "OT Laws" being kept in the NT. There is also a list of 1,050 "commands" in the NT floating around on social media, but when looking over that list, most are either taken out of context or not really a command. The ones that are commands can be traced back to, you guessed it, the Law/Torah.
The idea I bring up in the comic is one that doesn't make any sense when you think about it. Jesus refers to God as our Father multiple times, showing the type of relationship we have with Him. A good father doesn't have one set of rules that he then changes later on to be almost opposite of what he originally gave. He wouldn't say something is forever, and then later down the road be like "okay, we don't need to do this anymore". He wouldn't have one set of rules for one child and a totally different set for another child. Yet, in the modern mainstream Christian thought, these things a good father wouldn't do, is exactly what our Heavenly Father is doing.
A final note on a command being mentioned in order to be valid: What are your thoughts on someone marrying their sister? That's not prohibited anywhere in the NT. You might say "that's the moral law, and we still keep that". The Bible, even in the NT, makes no such distinction of a moral law vs other laws. A common verse brought up about the Law, James 2:10, says if you keep the whole law but stumble on one you break all of it. The verse above it gives examples of those laws: murder and adultery. Every Christian I have ever known would say both of these things are a sin. Yet, James never makes a distinction saying these are only part of the Law or the "moral" law. The readers at the time would know he is referring to the Torah. All of it. So, if marrying your sister is still not something you should be doing because God said not to, then according to James, the other aspects of the Law, like keeping the Sabbath, should be kept as well, unless you want to break the whole thing.
