    A Double Vaccination Of Jesus?

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,021 views

    In the story of a blind man being cured by Jesus it took Him two attempts. This is a foreshadowing for many disciples. They may need to "Jesus experiences" before them become devout disciples.

    A Double Vaccination of Jesus? Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz Mark 8:22-26 22 And they came to Bethsaida. And they brought a blind man to Jesus and implored Him to touch him. 23 Taking the blind man by the hand, He brought him out of the village; and after spitting on his eyes and laying His hands ...read more

    A Lesson In Faith By Way Of The Sea

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,304 views

    The Disciples learn about their faith on the sea. The sea is a metaphor for life's events. How strong is your faith when your "sea" gets turbulent.

    Jesus's disciples were sent out to the next city that He wanted to visit. They ran into trouble. A weather event took place, and that made it difficult to continue their voyage. They were scared about what was about to happen to them. In the narrative, they did not call out to the LORD or to ...read more

    Can The Church Be An Obstacle To Discipleship For Jesus?

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
     | 867 views

    Is it possible that some of the doctrine, rules, and regulations of the church be a stumbling block to becoming a disciple for Jesus? Yes, it was definitely one for me and I still struggle with it.

    {You may want to read Mark 4:1-9, This is the actual parable that I am speaking about. } [Why parables?] 10 As soon as He was alone, 1 His followers, along with the twelve, began asking Him about the parables. 11 And He was saying to them, "To you has been given the mystery of the kingdom ...read more

    People may think we are crazy for following Jesus.

    Half A Deck – Mark 3: 20 - 35 Intro: Every family has that one person who is a little different from the rest. You know, this is the person who at family reunions everyone talks about to everyone except that person. I want to confide in you. If you are the only person that no one speaks to at ...read more

    Can You Recognize Evil?

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
     | 1,620 views

    Satan manifests in many different ways. Can you recognize the ways especially when Satan is attacking you?

    Unfortunately, we have to accept that two opposing forces are working in the LORD’s Universe. They are called good and evil. They are created by the positive and negative energies that exist. An accumulation of positive energy is remarkable for a person to have. However, the truth is that you want ...read more

    Corruption Occurs Everywhere Even In Church

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
     | 1,516 views

    The church is not invulnerable to the possibility of corruption. The church human leaders therefore corruption will exist. Learn to recognize it because then you can stop it.

    The Pharisees started as a sect with a noble and perhaps a divine purpose. They were organized to resist the Hellenization of the Holy Land. The Seleucids wanted to change Galilee and Judah into a paradise of Greek Hellenism. The Pharisee sect was formed in 168 B.C.E. to combat this infringement on ...read more

    Do You Have Faith The Lord’s Direction?

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
     | 991 views

    How many of us can say we 100% follow the direction of the Holy Spirit? That is what we are expected to do. So how many follow?

    The interpretation of the Scriptures that have been developed by the Church and handed down to the generations says that Yeshua did not show much emotion. In this passage, the translation of the word pneuma (“spirit”) says that Yeshua’s feelings were hurt that the Pharisees came to Him demanding ...read more

    When Will The Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth Be Established

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,009 views

    The kingdom of Heaven on Earth will be established when the full work of Jesus Christ is complete. Who will complete this? That's you and me.

    At the literary level, this feeding of 4,000 people reads like a simple story. However, the was a large number of people who wanted to hear Jesus speak. Jesus wanted to ensure that they were not hungry, so he feeds them. The story is simple. However, moving from the literary reading to the ...read more

    Open Your Eyes

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,596 views

    You must learn the language and literary method that the people in Jesus used if you truly want to understand the Scripture. Hillel's method of asking questions is the optimal way.

    Near Eastern people in Yeshua's (and later on) wrote in allegories, metaphors, and parables. Is this healing story real? In the minds of Near Eastern people, it does not matter. The lesson of the story is the key. The lesson is that everyone must open their eyes to reading the Torah and live ...read more

    Jesus Came For Everyone

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
     | 1,826 views

    Jesus established His church to be open to all who wanted to worship Him. Why does today's not believe this? As a Jewish convert and pastor I have been on the receiving end of Anti-semitism in church.

    Jesus’ attitude and language used in the narrative can be shocking to the reader. How can our Lord and Savior treat anyone in the way He is portrayed in this narrative? The pagan woman was looking for her daughter to be cured. Instead of immediately helping her, He calls her a dog, thus insulting ...read more

    To Follow Or Not To Follow

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,125 views

    Who do you follower? Two followers of Jesus could be discussing an issue that appears to be allowed in the Bible? An even larger question is what do you do when two pathways are before you??

    The LORD gave us His Word as a guide for us to have a spotless life. There are so many rules and regulations that it is virtually impossible to live on Earth and not break a code here and there. The LORD established forgiveness into His system because He was aware that this would indeed happen. ...read more

    Scripture Or Tradition

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
     | 2,089 views

    When is it time to challenge church leadership as to whether or not they are following the Scripture? The last was 1517 and we called that the Reformation. It is time for another Reformation.

    Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz Mark 7:1-13 For 2000 years, the church has been creating ordinances for the people of God to follow. Many of these ordinances are not based on biblical Scripture but on the theological beliefs developed over the centuries. For example, in the Catholic Church, a priest ...read more

    What And Who Do You Believe In?

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
     | 1,220 views

    What do people believe in today? There are many Christians that say they believe in Christ but their actions say something else. Are you showing Christ to the world?

    Why would people think that a tzitzit could heal them? People in Jesus’s day were superstitious. Amulets and unique clothes were considered to have divine powers. Jesus was like the prophets of centuries earlier. These men and women could perform such things. Messianic tradition says that the ...read more

    You Cannot Silence What Is Just And Right

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
     | 1,490 views

    Jesus healed on the Sabbath. Where in the Bible does it say that you cannot do that? The question of what you can and cannot do and when is the debate.

    It is the Sabbath, and Yeshua went to the synagogue as all pious Hebrews did in His day. Mark’s author sets up the event by telling us that “they” were watching Him, observing what Yeshua was going to do. Why are they watching Him? At this point in the Gospel, the leaders of the various sects of ...read more

    Spiritual Warfare

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
     | 2,154 views

    We must band together as an army to fight the evil of Satan. Satan is roaming free in part because the church is so fractured that it cannot come together for this cause.

    The church interpretation of the feeding of the 5,000 in Mark 6:33-44 has always been about the miracle that only Jesus could take five loaves of bread and two fish and make it feed all those people. Unfortunately, this methodology of telling people the meaning of Scripture as black and white does ...read more
