Yeshua’s first miracle
was turning water into wine

of the vine
of the tree of life

the Tanakh (OT) gives glimpses of eternal life
Enoch walked with God then God took him
Abraham, Isaac, Aaron, Moses were gathered to their people, then their bodies buried
Rachel’s soul emerged as she died
follow the way of Wisdom to choose Life
Elijah ascended in a whirlwind among chariots of fire
flowers fade, grass withers, the Word endures
our bodies return to earth, our souls return to God who gave them
the faithful will not see the pit
the righteous will shine like stars
let’s dwell in the house of HaShem (theName “He was, is, will be”) forever

verses implying eternal life in the Tanakh (OT)
religions divide over turning enticing glimpses into definitive doctrine
let’s explore the Word of God together
birth death & Beyond!
the Brit Chadashah (NT) reveals more about eternal life
Yeshua calls us to store treasure in heaven
at time of maturity, wheat will be gathered into the barn, weeds will be burned
the kingdom of God is within us
all who embrace the Word become people of God
all who believe in God’s Son receive eternal life
many rooms are prepared for God’s children in His house
eternal life begins now
eye has not seen, ear has not heard what is prepared for those who love God
now we see as in a foggy mirror, then we will see face to face
the mortal must be clothed in immortality

verses promising eternal life in the Brit Chadashah (NT)
religions separate over converting mystery to dogma
let’s explore the Word of God together
birth death & Beyond!
balance
life spins us
how do we maintain balance?
in dance and in yoga
it helps to focus on one spot
focusing on our one God
centers our journey
let’s balance for life!
Designer clothing
life strips us
so what do we wear?
we need Designer clothing!
the armor of God
the belt of truth
the shoes of shalom
the breastplate of righteousness
the shield of faith
and more…
let’s dress for life!
inspiration
is the Bible inspired by the Creator of all
from Beyond space and time?
how else could it know
the Big Bang
7 day week
primal struggles of men and women
moral code
eternity in our hearts
the Name and nature of God
Kabala precedes quantum physics
prophecy parallels history
archeology reveals remnants
cycles of rebellion destruction redemption shalom
fit between Old and New Testaments
shows they share the same Source
Word enters Spirit fills
lives are transformed!
hydration
a friend recently told me
that he doesn’t need the Word
because God is within him
I responded
my body is made of mostly water
yet I still need to hydrate
from a Source beyond
gifted
some musically gifted people
can play songs by ear
some spiritually gifted people
intuit the essence of God
yet even musical geniuses
nurture their talent by reading notes
and even spiritual sages
nurture their souls by reading the Word
spiritual warfare
is often so misunderstood
please take a moment to reflect
on the possibility of God fighting with Satan
that would be like you battling a sandcastle!
everything that exists is created and sustained by God
the warfare is within us
we are the land that angels and demons battle over
spiritual entities tug at each soul
will you choose to chase idols
or to align with the eternal Word of God?
unity
the concept of Trinity confuses me
puts my brain in a pretzel
God is Beyond confusion
God is One
Source of Word and Spirit
through which we connect!
sunshine
our sun is temporary
our Source is eternal
our sun sends forth heat and light
our Source sends forth Word and Spirit
let’s bask in the eternal sunshine
of the presence of God!
together
Beyond religions that separate us
Jews and Christians join in believing
that God of the Bible is Creator of all
Source of Word and Spirit
through which we connect

let’s elevate our understanding

let’s unify believers
Together in the Word of God
please Join Our Journey!
