  them reasoning together, and perceiving that He
  had answered them well, asked Him, Which is the

  who had been with him, as they were crying and
  mourning. 11 But when they heard that he was
  alive and that she had seen him, they wouldn't
  believe it.

38
169 to end of chapter

• 12 After that, Yeshua appeared in another form to
  two of them as they were walking into the
  country. 13 They went and told the others, but
  they didn't believe them either. 14 Later, Yeshua
  appeared to the Eleven as they were eating, and
  he reproached them for their lack of trust and
  their spiritual insensitivity in not having
  believed those who had seen him after he had
  risen.

39
169 to end of chapter

Todays Joke

• Mrs Rubenstein is a very caring lady who spends a
  lot of her spare time visiting and helping sick
  members of her synagogue. Her car is also well
  known in the community because its decorated all
  over with lots of Hebrew decals and bumper
  stickers showing the Jewish charities she helps
  and a big Israeli flag covers most of her back
  window.One day, as she is driving to one of the
  home cares she regularly visits, her car runs out
  of gas and splutters to a stop.

45
Todays Joke

• "Oy veh," she says to herself, "and just when Im
  late." Fortunately, she remembers shes only a
  half mile from the nearest gas station, so she
  walks to the station to get help. "Hi," Mrs
  Rubenstein says to the man behind the till, "Ive
  run out of gas and Im hoping you can lend me
  your gas can. Ill pay you for the gas I use and
  Ill return your can as quickly as possible."

46
Todays Joke

• The attendant replies, "Im sorry, lady, but Ive
  lent out my only one not more than 5 minutes ago.
  Im expecting it back in about 2 hours, so if you
  want, you can wait here for it." But as shes
  behind schedule, Mrs. Rubenstein goes back to her
  car to find something that she could use to fill
  with gas.

47
Todays Joke

• Then, what good fortune, she notices the bedpan
  she always keeps handy in case of patient needs.
  So she takes the bedpan to the gas station, fills
  it and carries it back to her car.

48
Todays Joke

• As shes filling it up, two men slowly pass by,
  they see the big Israeli flag on her car and see
  her pouring fluid into her gas tank. One turns to
  the other and says,

Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• By Rabbi Stanley

52
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• Before we get started I want to go over a couple
  things.
• Theres been some questions concerning why we
  havent covered more for particular topics.

53
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• In other words, why havent we covered more
  concerning the blood of Yeshua or why we have
  we been spending so much time concerning history
  rather then teaching the doctrine of Salvation
  and so forth.

54
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• Those are valid questions and I want to give some
  answers to that.
• First of all, we (Believers) cant understand
  anything about Yeshua until we know a few things
  right?

55
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• We first have to hear the Word so we can then
  understand it.
• We cant understand the Word until we understand
  what its about.

56
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• One cant accept Yeshua unless they understand
  why He died for them.
• One cant understand why He died for them unless
  they understand what sin is.

57
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• If we have incorrect doctrine in our lives we now
  have a third issue to deal with.
• We have to unlearn that false doctrine then we
  can act on the truth.
• The way I see what were teaching in Messianic
  Judaism is kind of like a pie.

58
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• I relate well to pie and many things in my life
  can be directly related to it ?.
• So its like a pie.
• It doesnt matter if its a chocolate pie or a
  banana cream pie.

59
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• As long as it is a pie I feel we can communicate
  here.

60
Olstein
61
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• So many Pastors capitalize on this and they say
  things like, You have hear Jesus. If you dont
  hear Jesus taught, then theres something wrong.
• And I agree with that.

62
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• But they mean it differently then the Messianic
  Movement does.
• First theyre insinuating Jesus to be J E S U S.
  NOT Yeshua.
• If its just a name thing, then why wont they
  switch?

63
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• So firstly if you come from a Church background
  and you dont hear
• J E S U S
• Subconsciously, you may feel youre not hearing
  Jesus taught.
• Secondly

64
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• If someone were to ask you if youre hearing
  about G-d being taught, theyd say Yes, the Rabbi
  teaches about G-d every week.
• Now what just happened?

65
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• Theyve just separated Jesus from G-d. Theyve
  unwittingly just propagated polytheism, the
  belief in many gods.
• What Im saying is this

66
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• If youre hearing about G-d in Messianic
  Synagogue, youre hearing about Jesus.
• And if youre hearing about the Holy Spirit,
  youre hearing about Jesus.
• Theyre the same G-d.

67
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• And I know we all know that, but often times we
  dont really know that.
• Ill say this
• We need to focus more on the Oneness of G-d then
  we do on the tri-partite aspect of G-d.

68
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• We cant forget the tri-partite aspect of
• G-d or we forget Yeshua.
• But if you focus too much on the tri-partite
  aspect theres a human danger that one can begin
  to separate them too much, we can then be in
  danger of heresy.

69
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• There is this underlying deception in most
  churches which has convinced people that they
  (The Father and Jesus) are two separate entities.
• Now where would such a thought come from?

70
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• Immediately (first), it comes from Bible College.
• In Bible College we are taught without the words
  being said that there was a God of the Old
  Testament and a God of the New Testament.

71
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• The God of the Old Testament Jehovah was an
  angry, judgmental and unforgiving God.
• That is why we needed an intermediary Jesus to
  take our case before the judgmental God.

72
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• Jesus was the loving God and He was all about
  forgiveness, grace and mercy.
• Because of Jesus we can now enter heaven through
  His grace whereas before we entered by works.

73
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• I can take these exact thoughts smooth it out a
  little and most Pastors will agree with these
  statements.
• And that is horrific!

74
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• Heres how it sounds smoothed out.
• Jehovah required sacrifice and works in Old
  Testament times. When Jesus came He became our
  mediator and we are now saved by grace.

75
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• I could smooth this out in 3 different ways yet
  still retain the exact same thought.
• And that thought would still be conveying heresy.

76
Messianic Judaism 101Class 3

• Not only will I tell you its heresy, Ill tell
  ya what brand it is.

77
Marcionism Christianity

• Id like you to meet
• Marcion of Sinope 85-160 AD
• From Turkey
• His teachings were followed for centuries.
• He was a son of a -----

78
Marcionism Christianity

• Marcion was the first Christian leader to propose
  and delineate (describe precisely) a Canon.
• Ive taught here before that the idea of a Canon
  (Holy inspired writ, basically what books should
  be in the Bible) was not a Jewish concept.

79
Marcionism Christianity

• It was a Christian concept, specifically a
  Marcionite concept.
• Before Marcion, there was no New Testament!
• And in this Canon of his he left out a few books
  that we have today.

80
Marcionism Christianity

• He started off this process by separating the God
  of the Old Testament from the God of the New
  testament.
• The God of the Old Testament was a harsh God
  according to him.

81
Marcionism Christianity

• Jehovah was a very judgmental God, not a very
  loving God (The G-d of the Jews) but Jesus then
  came and He was a forgiving, merciful and patient
  God.

82
Marcionism Christianity

• Therefore Marcion declared that Christianity was
  distinct from, and in opposition to, Judaism.
• Marcion didnt even say the Old Testament was a
  lie.

83
Marcionism Christianity

• To the contrary, he said it was true.
• He even said that Jehovah was God. Just a
  different God then Jesus and that one couldnt
  exist without the other.
• That they were so tied together like they were
  One in essence.

84
Marcionism Christianity

• You also want to remember that Tertullian was
  born the year that Marcion died.
• Tertullian coined the word Trinity.

85
Marcionism Christianity

• Who better to define the word then the person who
  coined it.
• 3 Persons One substance
• G-d is not 3 persons, He is One G-d.
• 3 parts not three persons.

86
Marcionism Christianity

• This is a three headed god.

87
Marcionism Christianity

• Rule 1 in Messianic Judaism 1 G-d 3 Parts.

88
Marcionism Christianity

• You tell an orthodox Jew you believe G-d is three
  persons and hell rightly call you a
  polytheist.
• Say it to a Kabalist and hell say, Great!

89
Marcionism Christianity

• They believe in the Ten Sephirot.
• The Ten Sephirot are ten personalities of God.
• G-d is not schizophrenic!
• Wait for my teaching, Trinitarianism Kabbalism

90
Marcionism Christianity

• Theres some Pastors teaching some very bad stuff
  out there.
• Theyre teaching 3
• G-ds under the word trinity
• But Rabbi, they dont know any better. They
  dont know the difference between three persons
  and three parts.

91
Marcionism Christianity

• Ok, Im on board.
• These Pastors that are supposed to know the
  truth, the very basic idea that G-d is One.
  Theyre excused.
• Though they teach other people that G-d has 3
  personalities

92
Marcionism Christianity

• And G-d forbid they ever bring me before theyre
  Elders on this question and put me on the hot
  seat questioning if I believe in One G-d.

93
Marcionism Christianity

• Rabbi, do you believe in One God?
• Yes, yes I do.
• But Im not so sure that you do.
• As a people weve believed in One G-d for quite
  some time (Abraham's birth 1,948 years after the
  Creation, or 1948 AM (Anno Mundi, "Year of the
  World")

94
Marcionism Christianity

• We say the Shema every week. How many times do
  you declare His Oneness Pastor?
• Theyre excused again.
• But for how long?

95
Marcionism Christianity

• Well a lot of Christians ate Marcionism up. It
  made sense to them.
• If you dont have a clear understanding of
  Judaism, its easy to believe that they are 2
  different Gods.
• Most Christians today believe that even though
  they dont realize it.

96
Marcionism Christianity

• Marcion didnt stop there, he then saw a bit too
  much Judaism in the Gospels and later on he
  decided, they had to go.
• The books he kept for his Canon were the writings
  of Paul.

97
Marcionism Christianity

• His favorite book of course was Galatians. He
  felt Galatians was very anti-Law, in fact the
  most anti-Law book in the Bible.

98
Marcionism Christianity

• By eliminating the rest of the Scriptures he was
  left with his followers simply reading Galatians
  and Paul's other writings reading them over and
  over and over again.

99
Marcionism Christianity

• Some in the Christian Church began to see the
  problem with Marcionism and they fought against
  it.
• They barely won.

100
Marcionism Christianity

• Marcionism was almost the death of Christianity
  as we know it today.

101
Marcionism Christianity

• Marcionism was declared to be heresy and then
  forgot about for quite a while.
• But it slowly started creeping up again.

102
Marcionism Christianity

• This time under the guise of Grace Theology.
• Again the differentiation of the G-d head came
  back into focus.

103
Marcionism Christianity

• And once we focus on that too much, its a very
  easy step to get back to a three headed God.
• Its much better to focus on One G-d and try to
  understand Him along those lines and then your
  theology will stay stable.

104
Marcionism Christianity

• Even though today the Church includes the Old
  testament and the Gospels in their Bibles, they
  virtually ignore the Old Testament

105
Marcionism Christianity

• And though they include the Gospels in their
  Sunday sermons they completely de-Judahize it,
  which effectively incapacitates (Webster's def
  To deprive of strength or ability) it.

106
Marcionism Christianity

• So the Church has devolved back into Marcionism
  and has added a few catchy slogans and buzzwords
  which make it unclear and difficult to peg this
  particular theology.

107
Marcionism Christianity

• Theyve made it cloudy and spiritualized aspects
  of the faith.
• But it can be revealed
• For example
• (Us) Pastor, do you believe in One G-d?
• (Pastor) Yes, yes we do.

108
Marcionism Christianity

• (Us) Is Jesus anti-Law?
• (Pastor) Yes, yes he is.
• (Us) Did Jesus give the Law?
• (Pastor) No, God did

109
Marcionism Christianity

• (Us) therefore Pastor you do not believe Jesus is
  G-d.
• Theres many, many ways to do this, to bring out
  their true polytheism even though they dont
  believe theyre polytheists.

110
Marcionism Christianity

• The hypocrisy of it is astounding.
• The hypocrisy was evident even from the
  beginning.
• You may find this hard to believe but Tertullian
  was Marcions greatest critic.

111
Marcionism Christianity

• And Tertullian was the guy to propagate Marcions
  heresy concerning the G-d head.
• Its mind boggling what these guys were thinking.

112
Marcionism Christianity

• Tertullian called Marcion a heretic and yet
  Tertullian was a heretic himself.

113
Marcionism Christianity

• So hopefully Ive presented the idea to you that
  Marcionism has too much in common with
  Christendom today and you can now be an active
  agent

• Shabbat (Hebrew ???????, Ashkenazi
  pronunciation Shabbos, the Sabbath, "rest" or
  "cessation") is the seventh day of the week and a
  day of rest.

115
Shabbat

• Shabbat is observed from a few minutes before
  sunset on Friday evening and Rabbinically until a
  few minutes after the appearance of three stars
  in the sky on Saturday night.

116
Shabbat

• The exact times, therefore, differ from week to
  week and from place to place, depending on the
  time of sunset at each location.
• In polar areas where there is no sunrise or
  sunset at certain times of the year, a different
  set of rules applies.

117
Shabbat

• Observing the Sabbath is NOT a Jewish thing.
• In Gen 2 we read
• 2And on the seventh day God ended his work which
  he had made and he rested on the seventh day
  from all his work which he had made.
• There were no Jews then
• So G-d ceased on the 7th day from His work.

118
Shabbat

• Some say that G-d rested that day.
• I dont believe G-d needs to rest.
• If He completely rested wed all evaporate.

119
Shabbat

• It is imperative to keep the Sabbath Day Holy
  Exodus 208-9 teaches
• "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six
  days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work."

120
Shabbat

• It is to be taken very seriously because G-d
  takes it very seriously
• Ex 3115  15 Six days may work be done but in
  the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the
  LORD whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath
  day, he shall surely be put to death.

121
Shabbat

• G-d is a loving G-d correct?
• He doesnt will any to perish right?
• Jesus is G-d right?
• Jesus is full of mercy and patience right?

122
Shabbat

• Jesus says that if you break the Sabbath youre
  to be put to death right?
• When one begins to think in those kinds of terms,
  we find out very quickly if we serve 2 G-ds or 1

123
Shabbat

• Were also not to buy anything on the Shabbat
  (Sabbath).
• Neh 1031
• 31And if the people of the land bring ware or any
  victuals on the sabbath day to sell, that we
  would not buy it of them on the sabbath,

124
Shabbat

• Neh 13 says
• 15In those days saw I in Judah some treading wine
  presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sheaves,
  and lading asses as also wine, grapes, and figs,
  and all manner of burdens, which they brought
  into Jerusalem on the sabbath day and I
  testified against them in the day wherein they
  sold victuals.

125
Shabbat

•  16There dwelt men of Tyre also therein, which
  brought fish, and all manner of ware, and sold on
  the sabbath unto the children of Judah, and in
  Jerusalem.
•  17Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and
  said unto them, What evil thing is this that ye
  do, and profane the sabbath day?

126
Shabbat

•  18Did not your fathers thus, and did not our God
  bring all this evil upon us, and upon this city?
  yet ye bring more wrath upon Israel by profaning
  the sabbath.
•  19And it came to pass, that when the gates of
  Jerusalem began to be dark before the sabbath, I
  commanded that the gates should be shut, and
  charged that they should not be opened till after
  the sabbath and some of my servants set I at the
  gates, that there should no burden be brought in
  on the sabbath day.

127
Shabbat

•  20So the merchants and sellers of all kind of
  ware lodged without Jerusalem once or twice.
•  21Then I testified against them, and said unto
  them, Why lodge ye about the wall? if ye do so
  again, I will lay hands on you. From that time
  forth came they no more on the sabbath.

128
Shabbat

• 22And I commanded the Levites that they should
  cleanse themselves, and that they should come and
  keep the gates, to sanctify the sabbath day.
  Remember me, O my God, concerning this also, and
  spare me according to the greatness of thy mercy.
