Hmmmm, I find it funny how Christians and for the most part ministers and pastors choose to teach the Word of God as it fits their narrative and want to appease, for lack of a better term, the people or congregation to keep them engaged in their sermons. I agree that if you came to accept Christ and you had a tattoo before, no you're not going to hell because you repented from sin, therfore the blood of Yahshua cleanses you and makes you a new creature in Him. But I don't agree that if you already are a born again believer, you can and it's permisible to get a tattoo because it doesn't serve any purpose as it pertains to the kingdom of God. If we,as the light of the world, are going to act the same as the world does and participate in the same manner, how are we supposed lead those who are in darkness to come and accept the light? Yahshua said that though we are in this world, we are not of this world( meaning the believers). Brother Tim, I ask you this question, if you adopt a child into your family, isn't he required to adhere to the same rules you have established in your household? What makes us think that God is any different?

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Galatians 3:28

I spoke with my Dad about this years ago. He said you have to be careful to know that the Bible had periods in it when certain instructions where for certain people. It’s important to take your time reading it to get a complete understanding. It takes some time

I agree completely. If you have a tatoo, you arent going to hell. And you can still have a relationship with God that is fruitful and thriving. I advice the people I serve though not to get it because, what is the motive? 95% of the time someone tells me their motive for getting a tattoo its not for the Glory of Christ, it’s usually a selfish reason, so why do it? Secondly, i have encountered people even believers who cannot grow and move beyond a certain point because they have been held back by a door they opened through the tatoo. What we sometimes ignore is the cultural and spiritual meaning of tatoos. Tatoos can be used as a seal. There was a boy who was having some demonic expressions at a certain mission and deliverance for him wasn’t immediate because he said he had a seal (tatoo). This guy had made a covenant without knowing he was making a covenant. Can we just let the Holy Spirit be our seal that the world recognizes and sees the Glory of God? Can we just honor our bodies as the temple of the Holy spirit, and love our bodies the way they were created, take care of them by eating healthy and fitness and not add or subtract to what God has already put? Can we choose to live simple God Honouring lives without trying to copy or be influenced by what we see in the world? Can we focus on what is important? There are more things that God desires us to focus on and do (the gospel) rather than focusing on these debatable matters? If you are busy serving God you have no time to think 🤔 “I think i should put an angel on my back to represent the Angels of God surrounding me” 😒 About honouring the dead, there are better ways to do that Guys. Scripture is clear in the epistles on honouring those who have fallen asleep. I love your show Tim. Gimme a mic 🎙️ lets talk.

I really needed this because the devil has been telling me I'm not a Child of God because of my tattoo. However, this along with some other things the Lord has been reminding me of have been proving the devil as a liar once again. Thank you for your wisdom! Update: When I initially wrote this comment, I agreed with what Pastor Ross was saying concerning tattoos. However, recently, the Holy Spirit has really been convicting me and working on my heart. During this time, He has been showing me that even if something was written in the Bible once it stands true even now because God Himself does not change. I know many Chrisitians are split on the issue of tattoos, but I thought I would share what the Holy Spirit has been teaching me!

"Marking yourself" in the bible was in reference to cutting oneself. In the time of Old Testament Israel (before Jews would sacrifice animals to cover their sins), Jews would have to cut themselves in order to see their sins forgiven. This later was adjusted to say, 'don't cut yourself, instead sacrifice animals'. The God we see in the Old Testament and throughout the Bible is a God who meets people where they were at. We must understand, before it was comanded to cut oneself, people would sacrifice children. To go from sacrificing children -> cutting oneself -> circumcision -> sacrificing animals -> No sacrifice of animals or circumcision because Jesus' death covered it all - IS A BIG STEP! POSITIVE PROGRESS.

SO glad this was touched on. I had a discussion about this with my brother. I didn’t know or even think about who scripture was referring too. I found out in my early 20’s what the word said So, I was already exposed to tattoos. We all have a past. Don’t let the tattoos take away from the message.

perfectly said. Conviction seems to be a difficult topic, but you made it very practical!

This sounds really really great if you don’t actually study the Word for yourself, and grab snippets of information from others.Let’s remember our Father is a King not a president of 4 years voted by a certain group of people from specific political party. There’s no amendment that can added to fit our personal agenda. He has Laws , and those are set in stone for the betterment of the dwellers within. We can’t say we want to be citizens of His kingdom but when it’s time to follow the laws, we use the “well Im not originally from here, I just live here” card. If you came in the kingdom already tattoo’d up,that is totally fine; if you came in not knowing the true sabbath, that is totally fine; but understand this: the way you came in the kingdom, will not be the way you reside in it. As we’re learning more and more about His Word, it’s crucial that we study the Word line upon line, precept upon precept because ALL SCRIPTURE is written to correct us, and mold us into His righteousness. 2 Timothy 3: 16-17 I pray that each of us under these comments make it through the gates and hear Well done. 🙏🏾

I agree with you brother and we can't judge Christians with tattoos and well we all gotta love them for respecting for what's in your heart

Not only do I have tattoos but I have religious tattoos. I understand what certain people believe and that the body is the temple. I just decided to decorate it. 😁 God still loves me, and He loves you too

If you concerned about someone having tattoos it’s safe to say you are worried about the wrong thing. Smh

Although this was about tattoos, his view of the sabbath struck a cord. 1. Striving to follow the 10 commandments includes all 10 in its entirety. All remain valid today. 2. The sabbath was created and followed prior to exodus. It was establish at creation. Therefore, the 7th day is applicable to everyone 3. Remember - meaning recall. It has been done in the past. God was letting the Israelites know don’t forget your connection to me. Nothing wrong with listening to others’ views but please study for yourself and ask for guidance from the Holy Spirit. What will bring you closer to knowing God? ❤

As much as I love Tim Ross, when God created the earth and rested and made holy the seventh day, it was for all humanity not just Jews. Adam and Eve were not Jews. We don't get to pick and choose when we should do something that God has specifically designated. The one commandment God said to Remember we are intent on doing our own thing with.

What I find crazy is when he said he follows the 10 Commandments, but doesn’t realize keeping the true Shabbat is part of the 10 commandments! I’m blown away that you folks continue following this dude!! 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

I wonder if I can walk up to my church building and do some graffiti without being stoned or locked up. Just ah wonder! Convenient Christianity is a serious curse of the day. May we be lead by the Spirit of God and not let by our intelligence.

I've never heard the Jew and Gentile conversation broken down like this before. Wow, this is now my homework assignment for the weekend to look deeper into this. Thank you!!!

Lost me on the whole "I do observe the Sabbath, but it doesn't have to be on the same day" as the Jewish Sabbath... My brother in Christ, the 10 Commandments can't go "without saying" if you ignore that Genesis tells us which day is the actual Sabbath. It's the 7th day, the day that God rested on. Additional to the generationally continuous observance of a particular day as the God's Sabbath day of rest, a day which was never questioned as being the 7th day even by the Powers that abolished it, there's a whole documented history on how the Sabbath got replaced with resting on "the venerable day of the sun" (aka. the Lord's Day) which also simultaneously prohibited the Christian observation of the true Sabbath as commanded by God in His 10 Commandments.

I have a tattoo but this scriptures convicts me to not get anymore. 1 Corinthians 6:19 (KJV) What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 1 Corinthians 6:20 (KJV) For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

Tattoos are what makes some of us a testimony. The lord loves the unqualified because we show his power . The past is the past . We are forgiven when we accept Jesus Christ as our lord and savior

Hardcore much appreciated facts coming through on this one. Again….Tim is a real one

I can’t go along with this. That means the laws about sexual immorality does not pertain to us as well. You lost me with this. We cannot pick and choose what we will and will not follow.

I love when Tim brings out the Bible.

For High priests of the Levites they weren’t allowed to mark their body because those people back then who were marking their bodies were scarring their body for when they killed someone in battle or if they put tattoos on for tribal rituals. It also says not to shave the sides of your head (no fades). The priestly levites had a strict code given to them

Its also important to include the kind of body markings Leviticus is referring to which are not the same as tattoos in todays culture.

Thank you for educating us sir. Keep plowing.

If you don't read your Bible this makes perfect sense 🤔

I just asked God yesterday to educate me about Christian’s getting tattoos or to give me a sign because I want to get one and u posted this. Thank you🙏🏼

How come people argue so hard against the Sabbath Commandment, but not the other nine? It seems strange that the tradition of observing the 1st day is more important than the commandment to observe the 7th.

The Basement is dope! (had to say that 💯) ... Doesn't the Ten Commandments include keeping the seventh-day Sabbath? I love this pod and Tim's wisdom, so just curious for clarity on his Sabbath day view since he spoke of it as a personal conviction/for the Jews (similar to tattoos texts), but then said the "confines are the Ten Commandments", which is clear on which day to keep as the Sabbath ... Genuinely seemed a bit contradictory there. Love yall and praying for the ministry!!

Tattoos are not wrong but they are a gateway. The devil can use anything you have to be careful The times are worst

Finally someone addresses the context of Jeremiah 29:11

Context is key. Sadly, we isolate a scripture and create doctrine and policies to fit our preferences. Study and seek Holy Spirit for understanding. Be well and blessed!

It's inconsistent to use Leviticus 19:28 to speak against tattoos if the person gets haircuts. Verse 27 right before it says not to cut one's hair. If that's you, why the double standard?

I thought the the 7th day Sabbath IS in the 10 commandments though.

To those who do talk about tattoos, if you actually did read then it also says that you shouldn't get a haircut, no edge up fam, yet there you are crispy lol

I been watching your videos and you are a chill person from god and I just gotta be careful with my self cuz devil likes to miss around to make a lies not to speak the truth and i needed to pray 🙏🙏

I disagree. If you have to think twice about it, if your spirit is pondering about it. It's a sign its not of God. We have to be set apart. Leviticus 19:28 clearly states not to get markings

The Sabbath is not a 10 commandment or Jewish people thing. This is a Genesis 2 thing, even before Adam had a wife or family. There wasn’t any social construct as to who this day “belonged to”. God rested and sanctified the day. It’s personal to him. And in the departure from Egypt the Lord reminded them that as His people He has set apart time and space of refreshing/rest/celebration. He said it will be a sign between us and Him - that we are His people and He is our God. Yes God is clear! We just don’t wanna be, because , what I’m not sure. God’s law/word is immutable as His throne. We are in the beyond of God winking at our ignorance.

I don’t want to confirm my own worldly desires. Thank you for this.

Dropped a Bomb with that reading. Props Timmy props.

Thank you for this breakdown.

Keep it up Tim and god bless you

Thank you for sharing!

You are already off base if you feel you are a Gentile and not an Israelite. But in terms of the Scriptures Yahusha clearly states in Matt 5:17 Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. What laws could He possibly be speaking about?? If you goal as a "Christian" is to follow Christ and he observed the Sabbath , sounds to me like you are doing your own thing to suit your needs. Same thing applies with tattoos, you are supposed to be set apart from what everyone else is doing. Now if you had tattoos already that's a different story. We have to stop this I feel like.......... the Scriptures are very clear about these things. 🖖🏾

How would you describe worldliness to others? Is there such a thing as being worldly anymore? The tattoo culture did not start in the church, but the world. It seems to me to be the essence of worldly identity. I guess my question is what would your measure be as to what are worldly behaviors?

I was ask the same question about keeping the Sabbath Because of my faith and my teaching my response to the question was I have to keep the sabbath every day and the day I choose to keep it but you can educate me on why do you feel like I should keep it on Friday sundown Saturday and maybe I'll consider it till then I keep the sabbath every day😂

I had the same conversations with my grandparents about this and other topics. Then I read Romans 14.

Ppl manipulate the Bible to support their way of life. This is coming from someone with tattoos. If you are truly naive and unaware to what it means to mark your body, that’s one thing. But knowing and educating yourself and knowing your body is a temple. Why would you want to get one? Be disciplined! It’s not suppose to be easy. God will reward you for your faithfulness. The point is to fight your urges and the temptations of this world. Ultimately, take it to God in prayer. Don’t listen to every lil preacher you see online. They are leading you straight to hell.

The wisdom of God is in great quantity here.

Does this apply to piercings too? I want a nose piercing but I’m on the fence

“I have a Sabbath day but it don’t have to be on the same day as what you’re talking about. Now, the Ten Commandments go without saying.” My Bible includes the 4th commandment with directives for Sabbath observance, including the specific day. So are you truly advocating observance of the Ten Commandments or that there is no Sabbath directive. Unfortunately it can’t be both.

The reason a lot of people will sadly never fully experience what Christ did for them is because we consistently insist on using religion (acts) to justify their salvation not realizing that we were saved by grace which means it's never really about the things we fixate on. The body of Christ is constantly mixing up a culture of faith with religion and Old Testament Jewish culture. Let's look at the scripture that talked about this, Leviticus 19: Leviticus 19:28 Do not cut your bodies for the dead, and do not mark your skin with tattoos. I am the Lord. Here's what is interesting. In that same chapter, here are some other things that were mentioned: 27 “Do not trim off the hair on your temples or trim your beards. How about that. Does this mean that Christians should no longer trim their beards or cut their hair? 20 “If a man has sex with a slave girl whose freedom has never been purchased but who is committed to become another man’s wife, he must pay full compensation to her master. Is this justification for us to have slaves today? Is that what God is telling us? It's important to realize that a lot of the things that happened in the Old Testament set the stage for Jewish culture. The same God that nearly killed Moses for not circumcising his sons (Exodus 4:24-26), used Paul the Apostle to explain that it was no longer a requirement (Colossians 2:11-12). If we really are going to have this tattoo 'argument', then let's keep the same energy for everything 😅 The New Testament changed things because of Jesus guys! What was once religion and culture at the same time became purely - 'cultural'. This is why the Pharisees missed it. They were fixated on all the laws and rules of their culture and religion and ultimately got to a place where they felt their relationship with God was purely based on their actions and not by God's grace. Now does this mean you should go and start tattooing yourself? Absolutely not. Does going to a buffet mean you should eat everything till you can't breathe? Not at all. But the point is, Jesus has done a lot more for you than you realize. The moment you let go of religion, start understanding how to properly read and study the word (understanding context, culture etc.) and fully embrace what he did on the cross for us and realize it has nothing to do with us - but everything to with him, your life will never be the same. May Ephesians 1:17-19 be the reality of your life. Go read it ❤

Be careful not to be mislead nor mislead your listeners brother.

Hey Tim, I love your podcast, so this is not coming from a place of anger, but all love. I hate being that wierdo that copy-pastes a whole bunch of Bible verses in their comment but bear with me for a sec. Before there was a Jew, (Abraham) there was a sabbath, in Eden. Adam kept the sabbath, Adam was not a Jew. So even in a perfect world, the sabbath was kept with the intent to recognize and celebrate God as our Creator. " And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath" Mark 2:27 . It was made for huMANity not just for Jews. This is what Hebrews 4:1-11 says (pertaining to the Sabbath) especially verses 9-11: Therefore, since the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found to have fallen short of it. 2 For we also have had the good news proclaimed to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because they did not share the faith of those who obeyed.[a] 3 Now we who have believed enter that rest, just as God has said, “So I declared on oath in my anger, ‘They shall never enter my rest.’”[b] And yet his works have been finished since the creation of the world. 4 For somewhere he has spoken about the seventh day in these words: “On the seventh day God rested from all his works.”[c] 5 And again in the passage above he says, “They shall never enter my rest.” 6 Therefore since it still remains for some to enter that rest, and since those who formerly had the good news proclaimed to them did not go in because of their disobedience, 7 God again set a certain day, calling it “Today.” This he did when a long time later he spoke through David, as in the passage already quoted: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.” 8 For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken later about another day. 9 There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; 10 for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works,[e] just as God did from his. 11 Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience. So this clearly says that those who refuse to rest on the seventh day ( verse 4), which GOD HIMSELF requested as a sign (Ezekiel 20:20) between Him and His people that He is the creator of the universe (verse 3) and that those who disobey this command, as ancient Israel did in the past, will perish (verse 11). Also, I believe the objective of God establishing Israel, His chosen people of the past, was not to just have a favorite clique on earth and create laws that just apply to them, but to use them to draw the whole world back unto Himself. He was literally revealing His heart to them, with the desire that they would share it with the rest of the world, but sadly they often, as we do today, got carried away with Idolatry. So these civil and ceremonial laws were established for order and peace amongst each other (civil) and simply were to be carried out as a perpetual reminder of their savior that would come and die for their sins in the future (ceremonial). So since we are now all one in Christ seeing that "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female" ( Galatians 3:28), if Hebrews 4 says to rest on the seventh day I believe that is for ALL people not just the Jews. Sorry for this lengthy post, I haven't commented under a video in years, usually just not my thing, but I am blessed by your podcast and I just wanted to give my TEN cents lol. ALL LOVE😘😘

I'm a Christian and I have tattoos. Does that mean Im not forgiven? I thought the only unforgivable sin is blasphemy of the holy spirit.

Correction you do have a link. All are saved by Grace. But there are two groups... The Semitic ( Shem)and the Hemp( Ham).

So good 👏❤️

You will really know them by their fruits.

Sabbath was specifically mentioned about not following it also eating certain foods never mentioned tattoos

If my step-child moves into my house so that I now have my biological child and step-child living in the same home, you mean the house rules have to be separated based on who is who? There is something about choosing which of God's law pertains to which people (gentile, Christian, etc) that seems logical but out of order. That maybe how a democracy works but not a kingdom. If Jesus fulfilled the laws then He fulfilled it for all believers and not just Jews. And which Jews are we talking about? The original Jews? This pathway opens the door to so much heresy. Overall, God is not sending someone to hell because of a tattoo. [However] ...[n]ot everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!

All I have to say is that, It’s completely fine to have tattoos.. AS ALONG as it’s not of someone who has died or with a bad motive. The dead Only because it signifies you worshipping the dead. The bad motive because we’re called to not temp each other to sin. So as long as it’s not none of those two it’s fine. But for me it’s just confusion bc Most people just take thing without reading it in the same manner as we learn to study in high school asking Who What Where When How and Why. Who was he talking to, What he talking about, Where was it taking place, When did it take place, Why did he say to or not to do something, and how did it come about.

The way you have articulated this is dope.

Wowwwww so good !!!!!

I always listen to Tim but this message is contradicting honestly and yes he has a tattoo he would speak for himself because he has it and will try to benefit himself as so having it .the Bible speaks that we are not of this world as non believers have and do tatoo what will make us different if we also do tatoo with the same body that is the temple

Oops I’m about to get a tattoo perfect timing. Also guys, I actually know a pastor have the verse that said don’t mark your body tatto on him ( he spoke at our university this was years ago) it’s kind of funny lol just thought I share. Mind you I was at a Christian school too but I was too young I forgot about what he preached/ said about tatto

We always point out the sins that show if it even is a sin or not but what about the things that do not show. Listen to what the Holy Spirit speaks to you individually. Think about holiness in Gods eyes not your own. Take it all to God & humble yourself I mean really humble yourself in Gods eyes and if you can’t do it you may need to fast.

I just tell people my Sabbath day is Jesus, because Jesus is a lifestyle 🤗 thanks for this video!!

I soooo wanted this to be impactful & insightful…then the dudes voice changed when he started giving his opinion, not GODs word about how we feel about it…he, nor we is the point…It’s GODs. Tattoos are not keeping you from Heaven…but twisting the word of GOD can get that eternity in a hotter place. Really saddened by this, think this dude has great content about so many things, but let’s not water down and leave it up to our own “feelings”. The “interweb” really has impact in the world, let’s be more responsible about the Bible bbuudddiieess:)

1. Whenever you read scripture, pray to make sure your flesh is not looking to manipulate the scriptures to justify your own selfish wants. 2. When you read scripture, make sure you read the verse in focus within its context and biblical hermeneutics. Then whether “it applies to you” will make more sense. 3. When you’ve ascertained whether the commandment given then was a temporary but necessary one, or an eternal one, then ask yourself the big question. Do I have any worry, whatsoever, that the thing I want to do or acquire is sinning against Yeshua. If I have any a speck of doubt within me, if I don’t know scripturally to the T whether it’s a sin or not for me, don’t do it. If I know it’s not a sin, clearly and scripturally. Now that I know scripturally and with the prayer that what I am about to is not sin, why am I truly getting it. Is it for good things of good report, glorifying God, or was I looking for a non sinful means to place this tattoo in a sinful manner that causes lust or was for pleasing others and nothing else. Once you go through these, your soul should be at rest no matter what decision you come to. No matter the decision, the foundation must be, that you have absolute scriptural clarity for you, taking your flesh out of it, that you sin not against Yeshua. Then, it’s a matter of your heart and why you’re doing it. “For man looketh at the outward appearance, but God looketh at the heart”. God bless whoever reads this, and I pray whatever decision you make brings peace and not guilt to your soul, more knowledgeable of the holy scriptures for yourself, and closer to Yeshua.

It’s okay to have tattoos 😂 you guys. I think y’all needa watch Prophet Lovy cause us Christians be worried about the wrong things and end up turning people away from christ

People are being desenstitized by getting tattoos, piercings, mutilations, whatever....so when the mark of the beast presents itself, they will just get it, not thinking anything about it, not even paying attention to it. We have mixed what is godly in with what is ungodly, how will anyone know whats what? We as believers have to be an example

I feel like if that’s the case why are we following something that technically wasn’t written for non-Jewish people. I feel like there is no explanation behind it. Why does it only apply to certain people? Lol. I think people that says that gives people the okay to basically not follow scripture at all at this point. But explain to me if I’m over looking it…because that doesn’t make sense to me!

The sabbath is Friday night into Saturday night. The Vatican is who changed it, but we are to worship and love the lord everyday. The 10 commandments are under The old covenant of the law of Moses, and we are under a new covenant, which is grace. Gods grace. It was also a way to show people that without God we can not fully master those commandments. We need him. I am a Christian and I’m covered in tattoos. I don’t follow the law, I’m under Gods grace, but I do love all people and show mercy and compassion for all people. I do rest Friday into Saturday and do my Bible studies but I do them everyday not just those days. I worship the lord everyday. I feel that people are so stuck on laws, rules and Regulations that they forget, we are under the grace of God, which is the new covenant in the New Testament

autofocus going crazy lol. Bible, Tim, Bible, Tim

Praise God I think a lot of us (Ik I did) needed to think about it from this standpoint! I’d been feeling kinda bad about tattoos from my past lately and this brought me a lot of peace

The Old Testament was for a specific time and purpose. There are three types of laws in the Old Testament; the civil law, ceremonial law and moral law. The ceremonial law outlined rules for things such as cleanliness, dietary restrictions, tattoos, hair, piercings and rules for establishing priests. The civil law dealt with rules on settling disputes amongst the people. The moral law dealt with God’s rules for moral character, specifically the things outlined in the 10 commandments. All of these issues regarding tattoos, piercings etc. applied to ceremonial law. Christ died in the cross to atone for our sins. As of the New Testament we are no longer bound to civil and ceremonial laws. We ARE however bound by the moral law (10 commandments) under the new covenant of the New Testament. When asked which if these moral laws were most important Jesus replied in Matthew 22:37: “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind…the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.” God is much more concerned about our moral character than whether we abide by over 600 laws which are no longer applicable (with the exception of the 10 commandments). It’s what’s in our heart vs. what’s on our body that God truly cares about.

I do not completely agree with Pastor Tim's points (I still love and follow his teachings), however i do not believe tattoos are sins. So we're still on the same page i guess. But follow your heart FAM❤

The Jewish leaders at the time definitely killed Jesus & wanted him dead because they felt he was not keeping the Jewish Laws handed down by Moses & they chose to crucified him because they thought he was mocking God by saying he was the Son of God because he didn't come by how they thought the Messiah would come & they didn't have Faith in Him being the Messiah even though they seen him perform Signs & Miracles that could only point to him being who he said he was. Thats why Jesus said simply being Jewish doesn't automatically make you his people & by simply keeping the law doesn't make you righteous, it is your Faith in him that counts. Because with Faith your heart will be set right, & the fruits you produce will show where your heart is really at.

So being adopted into the family means we don't need to follow the house rules? I don't understand that.

His point about context is true, the context that he uses to support his stance is wrong. Grateful for the video tho. God Bless

@roqkiernb has posted a brilliant comment on the issue of tattoos - therefore, I will not say much on it. On the issue of the Sabbath, I disagree with the presenter because the Sabbath was established way before the Jews came into existence. "By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done." Genesis 2:2,3. Jesus also confirms this when he says in the New Testament “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.” Mark 2:27,28. In relation to the quoted scripture of Acts 15:24-29, Paul in a couple of scriptures refers to basic spiritual teaching given to someone who does not yet believe as milk. In 1 Corinthians 3 Pual clearly states that he could not speak to the Corinthians as spiritual people "but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ." In verse 2 he states, "I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it..." In Hebrews 5:14 Paul writes "But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil." My conclusion is that, what requirements the council decided on for the gentiles was purely for the reason not burden them - it was milk, to introduce and establish their faith in the God of heaven, not that it was the ultimate and end of it all - just like we cannot give a new born baby an apple or a steak to eat as they do not yet have teeth to chew. However, as our relationship with the Lord grows and our faith in him becomes stronger - God will keep revealing to us in stages those things we need to adjust, remove, incorporate (the meat). Blessings!

Powerful

And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

Yes,,Teach

to each their own… we will all be before God’s throne awaiting judgement… if a tattoo edifies you closer to God then do it, but if it don’t then don’t do it…

I’m a Christian working in a Jewish synagogue.

Whoa, very mind opening/blowing

Amen

New subscriber can you say beige watching ALL of these videos.

But didn't the gentiles observe sabbath as well? Acts 13:42 and when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.

Romans really goes into this I believe chapter 14 its really great

Amen ❤

Where’s the full ep ? 😫 lol

Can this also apply to tithing?

I know you probably answer this in the video, I’m only halfway through and it I get an answer I’ll edit this But where do we draw the line between Old Testament and New Testament? If that doesn’t apply to us, then what about everything else in the Old Testament laws? Edit: found the answer 4:37 and on

Tattoos are spiritual! Be mindful the word of Yah does not change, so what he says to one he says to ALL! Regardless Jew or Gentile we all are held at the same standards! As a believer please do not mark up your body, Tattoos do not edify the body of Christ

I was with you but I’m confused..Who do you believe are the Gentiles according to the Bible ?

If you lead somebody to Jesus, you are supposed to leave that person with Jesus. Be there to love the person and remind the person to stay with Jesus, but that person should not be following you. It will make you vain. Puffed up. You might begin to quench the spirit in people by telling them that they are not free to believe all that God said, and bind them in the prison of “context”. Be it unto you according to your faith. If you do not believe God knows the plans he has for you because he was talking to somebody else when he said it, that is the limit of your faith. But please refrain from telling people that God is bound by context. It is as foolish as saying because Paul wrote to the Corinthians, what he said to the Corinthians does not apply to anybody but Corinthians. When we were adopted into the family of God we got more than the promises, we also got every Word that proceeded from the the mouth of God. Which is not grievous. Consider what I say, and Jesus give you understanding in all things.

The question I have is where does Galatians 3:28 come in. Also where does Romans 2 come in…
