The same God who made the butterfly made the deep sea gulper eel.
You don't have to personally prefer it, but you do have to acknowledge that, as the Bible says, it is objectively very good.

Instructions for the Sabbath and the Tabernacle are linked because they both remove God's people from the world: one in time (Sabbath) and the other in space (Tabernacle). Like the weekly Sabbath, God's Tabernacle was a place set apart from all other places. It restored us to health, happiness, and God's presence, while uniting us as a community.
The commands about the #sabbath and #tabernacle both concern the building of a house: With the Sabbath, we commemorate God building a very big house for us. With the Tabernacle, we build a very small house for God.

Often times, on various Messianic platforms, it feels a little like this:
I saw an advertisement for a Metaphysical Fair, I see them all the time. They are typically associated with pagans, new age and the like, and usually promoted by a local Metaphysical Shop. They are very popular and there seems to be many places to shop for these peoples spiritual needs. Why is it we do not see this type of involvement from the Hebrew Roots/Messianics? Are we that small of a group we can not do these things? I for one would like to see more unity when it comes to selling and supporting people in the community.

The secular science community is constantly changing the explanation of evolution and the beginning of the universe. Millions of years became billions of years, reptiles become birds and now birds came first. The Bible has never changed, it has remained consistent since Moses wrote the first words. The choice should be clear, do we place our faith in an ever changing fairy tale of evolution or the consistent truth revealed in the Bible and confirmed by archeology as even the rocks cry out?
