The Foundational Principles of Christianity, according to Hebrews 6:1-3.
Jesus is saying we need to get off foundations and move into maturity, not laying again the foundation. Then he begins to describe the foundations, which are explained in depth through this seven-part teaching.
Hebrews 6:1-3 "Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection, not laying again the foundation of: repentance from dead works; and of faith toward God; of the doctrine of baptisms; and...

The Foundational Principles of Christianity, according to Hebrews 6:1-3.
1. Tefillah, Teshuvah, Tzedakah Pictures from Hebrew hieroglyphics are used like a comic strip, to illuminate the word. Tefillah/Prayer: turn the head, in order to face the one, who can bear the burden. Teshuvah/Repentance: change your thinking. Tzedakah: Righteousness revealed; to be generous. The desire of your heart opens the door to humility.
2. Being a Peacemaker Peacemakers and Escalation... Our hero of the faith was a rebellious, spoilt brat, who wanted his own way, in every single way. This was a man that was sleeping with prostitutes on his wedding night, because he got...

The Rest of Faith (1 of 4) ""The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down."" Psalms is full of David's battle to find that resting place. In fact he had many difficulties, pressures setbacks, obstacles - all kinds of challenges, but he said "I'm never lacking, because God is my provider and my source." He came to rest inside, in God. The kingdom of God is about rest, not works. ""He that has entered into rest has ceased from his own works.""

Adam heard God speaking to him when he was in the Garden, even though he'd sinned and walked away from God. People can hear the voice of God. We need to learn what it's like and how to recognise it. Once you become a believer Jesus expects not only would you hear His voice clearly, but you would actually respond and follow Him. So for a believer the number one thing that I would say if you have to learn anything in your life, this is the thing you'd want to learn; how can I build a relationship with Jesus and hear His voice consistently?

1.Ten Commandments God wants to marry you - leaven and all. No matter what you've done, or where you've been, God is determined to make it right for you. The OT marriage covenant (and its Hebrew context), are used to understand some things Jesus said about his return, and about the rapture. The 10 commandments is considered from the perspective of a long line of slaves. So we get a day off? You can't kill me, or take my things, just because you're stronger than me? My human rights and dignity will be respected in our new culture? That is fantastic

Jezebel set out to destroy all messengers of the Lord. She destroyed prophets wherever she could find them; and raised up instead her own prophetic messengers.
They brought a message which they called Prophecy, but it was actually speaking words that were demonically-empowered, and seduced the nation. The nation came under it, literally fell asleep spiritually.
In the Old and New Testament, the same spirit power, the same kind of operation, to lead people astray, so they don't walk in the destiny that God had for them.
