"And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works."

Thought for Today: Tuesday September 30
What is your fear today? Do you fear the future? Do you fear life’s burdens that sometimes seem almost overwhelming? Do you fear death? Most people -- including many, many believers – fear everything except YHVH! People even fear satan more than YHVH – fear of the creation rather than fear of the Creator! Yet it is Him whom we should fear most of all. Yeshua can put an end to fear for all who trust in Him. He is the answer to any fear you may have. After all, YHVH’s power is greater than the powers of evil, and “neither death or life, neither angels or demons, neither the present or the future or anything else in creation, will be able to separate us from the love of Elohiym that is in Yeshua Moshiach our Adonai” (Romans 8:38-39)
When Elyon gave to the nations their inheritance, when he divided mankind, he fixed the borders of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God.
Deuteronomy 32:8
Elyon (the Most High) and El Shaddai (God of the Mountain) are names for God that remind his people that the minor gods of their high places are nothing compared to Him. He is the Highest, the only true God of the Mountain.
The borders of Israel might be set by the number of God's people in relation to the world. Look at the map and remember this: "Narrow is the path and few who find it."
New episode, When What You ‘re Taught Doesn’t Match What You Read. Listen where you get your favorite podcasts, use the player on our homepage, watch on You Tube, Rumble or The Torah Network’s Torah Tube.
Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is...submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ.
Ephesians 5:17,21 ESV
Mutual submission within the body of Christ *because of Christ in the body*.
If you can't set your ego aside and be a team player once in a while, even when you think there's a better way, then you are creating an autoimmune condition in the body of Christ.
The Bible uses rain as a metaphor for a spectrum of good and evil. A #merism in a single word. At one extreme is drought. At the other is hail and fire. Righteousness and life are right in the middle. Moses prays that his speech will fall like light rain, the perfect good for Israel.
The Song of Moses begins and ends with praise for the God of Heaven. Much like the Lord's Prayer as taught by Yeshua.

UPDATE POST:
It has been almost a year since my last update. There are a few things that have happened or are coming soon and I wanted to do another one.
- I hit 1,000 comics recently! I know I am excited about that fact. You can see the 1,000th comic here: https://thestraightandnarrow.cfw.me/comics/1000
- The new Torah 4 Churchies book is available in paperback or e-book! You can get it here: http://amazon.com/author/straight_n_narrow
- I have been working on the website again. I am hoping to have that up sometime this year.
- Portions Series 2 will be wrapping up with Sukkot. I will have completed the whole Bible at that point. I do not plan on starting another Portions Series at the moment. What I will do is change Fridays to another As The Torah Scrolls comic. Saturdays has been my random Throwback posts. I will change this to a Throwback Portion comic and move the random to Thursdays.
Thank you all for being part of this journey with me. I pray that the comic continues to bless you and yours. May YHWH bless you and keep you. Shalom!
#haazinu, the name of this week's #torah portion (Deuteronomy 32), means "give ear". Here are some corresponding Apostolic passages to study along with related commentary and videos: https://www.americantorah.com/....2021/02/18/parsha-ha
Many Christian denominations teach that Paul writes the law was “done away with”. However understanding the letters attributed to Paul don’t describe abandoning the law, instead the writer is illustrating how to apply the Creator’s instructions to the lives of the people to whom his letters were sent. In 1 Corinthians 5:1 —2 Paul writes about the immorality of incest which directly cross references to Leviticus 18:8, “You must not have sexual relations with your father’s wife; it would dishonor your father.” And Leviticus 18:29, “Therefore anyone who commits any of these abominations must be cut off from among his people.”
