Living Covenant Faithfulness in Everyday Life — ten practices that bring Torah out of theory and into the morning, the threshold, the table, the workplace, and the home.
A catechetical series on the nature of faith, the knowledge of God, and the covenant walk — restoring the original Lectures on Faith through a Hebraic, Torah-observant lens.
Six words. What each means, what the text commands in response, and what it says about tefillin, mezuzah, and the oneness of Yehovah.
Four categories, clear criteria, and a purpose: be holy, for I am holy. What Leviticus 11 commands — and how it shapes daily covenant life.
The shift from the seventh day to the first didn't happen at Sinai and didn't happen at Calvary. Here is when it actually happened, and what changes when you turn it back.
Tzitzit are not religious jewelry. They are a Torah command with a specific purpose: to see them and remember. This essay works through what is commanded, what is tradition, and what the LDS temple garment shares with this ancient covenant practice.
The command is real: bind them on your hand, place them between your eyes. But what exactly is Torah commanding? A Karaite and Restoration reading of what “bind them” actually means — and what a lived tefillin looks like today.
The claim that Torah doesn't teach substitution only works if you ignore four witnesses in the Torah alone, three in the Prophets, and the Restoration scripture that explains what they were all pointing toward from the beginning.
The law was for the Old Testament. Grace replaced it. We are not under commandments anymore. It sounds simple — and it falls apart the moment you read the Scriptures together.
If He broke the Law, He sinned. If He sinned, He is not the Messiah. Every Sabbath controversy, every accusation in the Gospels — examined against the text to settle the question once and for all.
Most people grew up with the word “repentance.” The Hebrew says something deeper: return. This essay works through what teshuva actually is, why it is not perfectionism, and how Yeshua the Messiah makes genuine return possible.
Section 132 reads differently when you've read Numbers 30. Section 89 reads differently when you've read Leviticus 11. Eight passages, permanently changed.
From Nephi to the Risen Christ, Book of Mormon prophets held a unified position: Torah is not abolished until the Atonement is complete. Eight prophet testimonies, a summary table, and the passage LDS teachers rarely quote.
The Nephites believed in Christ, taught Christ, prophesied of Christ — and still kept Torah for centuries. Eight pieces of evidence, six debate-proof Q&A answers, and the one verse abolitionists never quote.
Most people don’t struggle with “fulfilled” because it’s unclear. They struggle because they already have a conclusion. A precise exegetical argument for why fulfillment means destination, not deletion.
Peter warned us Paul would be twisted. Ten specific passages where people misuse him, with the contextual reading that resolves each apparent contradiction. Paul never taught lawlessness.
Moroni delivered the plates on September 22, 1827 — the day that aligns with Yom Teruah. The spring feasts were fulfilled on schedule. The question isn’t whether God stopped using His calendar. The question is whether we’re paying attention.
Every verse people use to argue the Law is abolished, answered in context. Seven sections, 25 verse cards, one pattern: restore the context and the contradictions disappear every time.
Not all true speech is permitted speech. Lashon Hara — evil tongue — is the Torah's category for words that harm without righteous purpose. What the text commands, what Restoration scripture confirms, and the five questions that separate lawful speech from sin.
Leviticus 11 defines what is food. D&C 89 governs how to use it. These are not competing systems — they are two layers of the same instruction for a people whose bodies are Temples.
A Torah command, not a decoration. The words of the Shema written on the doorposts of the home mark the threshold as sacred space — and point to the Restoration's theology of physical tokens, covenants, and the garment of the house.
Like the ancient Bereans who searched the scriptures daily, this series reviews selected Liahona articles and maps them back to the canonized word — affirming what aligns, expanding what is partial, and redirecting what has drifted.
When a new teaching is published, subscribers hear first. No noise — only the work.
