  2. It is important to have Faith in the Bible as God’s Living Word and to anticipate revelation when studying. • The Bible is one continuing Revelation from Genesis to Revelation. • Only the Bible from Genesis to Revelation can be viewed as inherent. • The Bible is the history of creation through redemption of the Kingdom of God. • Look for analogy, comparing correct behavior, actions and attitudes with incorrect. Teaching the Spiritual through the Physical. • View your own relationships and experiences against those found in the Bible and try to see them through God’s eyes. • The Bible is always correct even if we can’t understand it. The Tree of Life to Tree of Life Learning DoctrineTop 10 Principles

  3. We need to understand God’s Original Intent and Ending Intent to fully understand scripture. • It is important to understand the Heart of God and to have aHeart for God as the Bible is written from God’s point of view. • God is a person and has emotions and intellect. • Replace the word Jew with You! • We should understand the time, place and audience the scriptures were delivered to. • The scripture would not be in the Bible if there was not something God wanted all humanity and you personally to know and understand. The Tree of Life to Tree of Life Learning DoctrineTop 10 Principles

  4. Faith in Yeshua, means Yahweh Saves, is the key for unlocking the Fullness of meaning from the Bible. • God is about Redemption. Redemption means: Reuniting to God (Echad) in Shalom (Peace and Wholeness) that which was lost to sin. • God redeems remnants, because remnants repent into faith. • God redeems out of pain and suffering, because people in pain and suffering repent into faith or choose to deny God. • God redeems the righteous, because they are people of faith. • Satan and angels and some people choose evil over God. • God redeems for His Glory and Glorifies the Redeemed. • God will judge the evil to perish, because he loves his redeemed.

  5. God does not change but reveals more of Himself as people mature Spiritually. Trinity, Law and Grace, I am the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob • Study the commentaries of others but always come into agreement with the Bible. • Some Rabbinic, Church, and Messianic doctrine is tainted or skewed by un-Belief, Pride, anti-Semitism and Scripture Misunderstandingthat has become embeddedas foundation principles and practices. • Rabbinic- Talmud as equal to God’s Word. Messianic Kingdom Focus • Church- Replacement Theology of Church for Israel: Church Age Focus • Messianic- Slanted toward Judaism rather than Jewish Messiah • Jewish Messiah- Focused on a relationship with Yeshua/Jesus The Tree of Life to Tree of Life Learning Doctrine

  6. Genesis 12:1-3 The LORD had said to Abram, “Leave your country, your people and your father’s household and go to the land I will show you. “I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.” Mark 10:28-32 Peter said to him, “We have left everything to follow you!” “I tell you the truth,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age (homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—and with them, persecutions) and in the age to come, eternal life. Matthew 23:7-12 they love to be greeted in the marketplaces and to have men call them ‘Rabbi.’ “But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have only one Master and you are all brothers.And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called ‘teacher,’ for you have one Teacher, the Christ. The greatest among you will be your servant.

  7. Summary Principle: God wants to change our paradigm from a World View to a Messianic View! John 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full or abundantly.

  8. Kingdom of God (KOG) Importance Why study the Kingdom of God (KOG)? • The Kingdom of God is the most pervasive theme in the Bible under which all other lessons fall under. • You will grow in love and faith for God and the Bible as you see a theme transverse 66 books written by many authors over 1500 years and are able to see God’s Truth in your life. • You will better understand the role of Yourself, Israel and the Church in End-Time events.

  9. Kingdom of God (KOG) Importance Why study the Kingdom of God (KOG)? Luke 4:43-44 But he said, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns also, because that is why I was sent.” Luke 6:20 (Beatitudes-Sermon on the Mt.) Looking at his disciples, he said: “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Matthew 11:10-14 I tell you the truth: Among those born of women there has not risen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied until John. Daniel 7:27 Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven will be handed over to the saints, the people of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will worship and obey him.’

  10. The Kingdom of God is the eternal spiritual home where Believers will live with God in infinite blessing, provision, love, joy, intimacy & holiness as his children. The Kingdom of God The Kingdom of God is the very purpose and will of God expressed in creation and the Bible.

  12. Symptoms • Pain • Allergies • Rash • Headaches • Treatments • Pain Killers • Allergies Medicines • Topical Ointments • Medication When our Doctrine is wrong AND OUR Faith is weak, we often treat the symptoms of problems, while not repairing the Root cause of pain. The pain keeps resurfacing perhaps in different areas. John 15:5-8“ I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.

  13. The Feasts of the Lord and Hebraic Holidays have their Full Meaning in Messiah! The Feasts have more meaning for the Church which is Believing Israel and Gentiles! Matthew 5:17-19 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. …but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. Colossians 2:15-18 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ.

  14. Ephesians 2:13-3:1 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ. For he himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace, and in this one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility. Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God’s people and members of God’s household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit. Citizenship Parable and Parable of the 3 Students

  15. Romans 11:12-25 I am talking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch as I am the apostle to the Gentiles, I make much of my ministry in the hope that I may somehow arouse my own people to envy and save some of them. If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted inamong the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root, do not boast over those branches. After all, if you were cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree!I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.

  16. Romans 9:1-5 I speak the truth in Christ—I am not lying, my conscience confirms it in the Holy Spirit— I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart. For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, those of my own race, the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption as sons; theirs the divine glory, the covenants, the receiving of the law, the temple worship and the promises. Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of Christ, who is God over all, forever praised! Amen. Why don’t the Jewish people get it? Parable of Muslim and the Christian Post 911

  17. Anti-Semitism is Real-If you’re a Jew Roman Church State: Subsequent writings by church fathers (and church leaders throughout church history) condemned Jews, accusing them of being idolaters, torturers, spiritually deaf, blasphemers, gluttons, adulterers, canibals, Christ-killers, and beyond God's forgiveness. With the rise of the Church-State, certain religio-political attitudes such as Jesus ruling the world through the Roman Christian government became evident in the Church. The Justinian Code The Justinian Code was an edict of the Byzantine Emperor Justinian (527-564). A section of the code negated civil rights for Jews. Once the code was enforced, Jews in the Empire could not build synagogues, read the Bible in Hebrew, gather in public places, celebrate Passover before Easter, or give evidence in a judicial case in which a Christian was a party. Decrees by the early Catholic Church (partial list) Crusades The Catholic Church launched a series of nine holy wars from 1096-1272. The purpose of these wars was to march to the Holy Land of Palestine and liberate it from Moslem "infidels." Along the way, the crusaders massacred all "infidels" in their path who refused to be baptized on the spot to Christianity. Thousands of Jews were massacred in Germany and France.

  18. The Inquisition was a tribunal established in the Middle Ages (13th Cent.) by the Catholic Church in Rome designed to suppress heresy. The Dominican order had set as one of their goals the conversion of Jews to Christianity. This aim, backed by the power of the Inquisition, brought on a wave of persecution. Protestant Reform Martin Luther (1483-1546) founded a new Christian faith, Protestantism, in the 16th century. Martin Luther became one of the most intensely bitter anti-Semites in history. His writings described Jews as the anti-Christ, worse than devils. Jews were poisoners, ritual murderers, and parasites, he preached, and they should be expelled from Germany. His view was that synagogues should all be burned to the ground, and all Jewish books should be seized. Pogroms Holocaust Christ Killers in US- Segregation Jewish law and life called Judaising of the Church and Legalism Replacement Theology

  19. Isaiah 53 We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. Yet it was the LORD’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the LORD makes his life a guilt offering, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the LORD will prosper in his hand. After the suffering of his soul, he will see the light of life and be satisfied; by his knowledge my righteous servant will justify many, and he will bear their iniquities. Therefore I will give him a portion among the great, and he will divide the spoils with the strong, because he poured out his life unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

  20. Jonah 1:1-3 “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.” But Jonah ran away from the LORD and headed for Tarshish. Jonah 3:4-9 On the first day, Jonah started into the city. He proclaimed: “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overturned.” The Ninevites believed God. They declared a fast, and all of them, from the greatest to the least, put on sackcloth. …the king of Nineveh, …issued a proclamation in Nineveh: “By the decree of the king and his nobles: ..Let everyone call urgently on God. Let them give up their evil ways and their violence. Who knows? God may yet relent and with compassion turn from his fierce anger so that we will not perish.” (Jonah is angry because he hates the Assyrians and God says) But Nineveh has more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot tell their right hand from their left, and many cattle as well. Should I not be concerned about that great city?”

  21. Isaiah 49:6 he says: “It is too small a thing for you to be my servant to restore the tribes of Jacob and bring back those of Israel I have kept. I will also make you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring my salvation to the ends of the earth.” Revelation 22:11-16 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. “Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood. “I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.”
